Have you ever owned something that, to the uninitiated (like your spouse or parents), looks so ratty and distressed they wanted to throw it out?
Tell us about it. Did you keep it?

I finally got rid of my clothes I had been hanging on to for 10 or more years because they didn't fit but I liked them and hoped I would loose 20 or 40 pounds. I still have too many clothes.Thankfully, John doesn't try to get me to throw things away. It's the other way around, lol. He had this chair that was sort of low to the floor and very comfortable, with a matching hassock. It looked quite beaten up but I didn't ask him to get rid of it until we moved to a place where there was absolutely no place to put it. Then he agreed that it had to go. We kept the hassock because my cat liked to sleep on it.
I have a few storage bags of clothing that I may never fit into again, but they remind me of the way I used to be, so I keep them.
