Do clothes shrink in your closet? I swear mine do...

I have a little pile of perfectly good fall/winter clothes that I am getting ready for fall here in New England (if it ever comes). And so many of them have SHRUNK since last year!

I just dunno what happened.....

Funny, since I turned 65 I now worry about leaving behind crap like this behind for my daughter to deal with. Guilt and shame, not on Friday. I’ll work on them tomorrow!
