ON THE BACK BURNER

Today was my volunteer day and this time, I had a lot of sorting to do. Last week was a bust. I even left early. There were no clients and no clothes to sort and hang up. Today, Someone donated huge bags of 1X, 2X and 3 X clothes. All from JJill and LLBean. We were happy to get  them. Large clothes are in demand and we don't usually get such a generous amount.We have an arrangement with a high end resale shop to take items that we can't use, like silk, linen  and dressy clothes that require special care. We gives is half the amount that she sells them for. It is a wonderful deal for us. Next week, I am scheduled to be  there for a dressing. I am looking forward to that .I hope the client goes home with bags of clothes, shoes,jackets, boots, socks,bras,and sweaters. They are there for her to make her feel good and give her a boost of confidence.That makes us all feel good.
