Pack-rat in denial

Going through all of my worldly possessions and deciding what is worth keeping, what goes to charity, what goes to the dump, etc.

From a hidden away corner down in my basement, I found an assortment of evening gowns that I saved from my graduations, friends' weddings, etc. These garments have some sentimental value and out of curiosity and nostalgia, I decided to try them on. To my chagrin, they don't fit (surprise surprise!) Man, I must have been skinny back then! I've put on a couple pounds lately but I'm not huge; I can't even zip 'em up! Hmmmmph!

I’m not sure which is worse: the fact that a few garments that I wore 20+ years ago no longer fit me or the fact that I still have garments from 20+ years ago???
