It has begun!!!
The yearly battle of the coats.
We wear them, they get soaked, and mysteriously cannot seeem to find their way back into the closet.
When I was little, no matter how many times my mom would say, 'put your coat in the closet,' we would argue that it was too wet and would get the other clothes wet as well. We were then allowed to put them on the doorknob until they were deemed dry enough to join their peers.
Well, this left us an easy loophole when it came to keeping track of our coats. We would lay them on the bench or doorknob to 'dry' and somehow, no one ever put them truly away... they went from laying on the bench, to on us, to the closet doorknob, to on us, to anywhere but the closet and then we'd wear them again.
This dance has continued every year since I was tiny, and now there are 6 people in our house-- the armies have grown on both sides.
More coats. More people fighting the battle. More excuses why the coats always seem to win.
Will it never end?!?!?!!!
