Spending Fast: Day 21 – Get Creative
So honestly….I’m just wanting to revamp some of my clothes although I realistically, I don’t NEED new clothes and the next year of my life is going to be Nursing school. So with going through my closest, I decided to: Go through and get rid of clothes that I don’t wear anymore and are just…
