Hi mum2one, what's a bonding square?
I'm surprised you haven't got RSI yet with all that knitting, I had to give it up for years because of that and only recently started again and can only do a few rows before my fingers hurt.0 -

It's a little 5in knitted / crotchet square, make 2, so mum puts one in her bra, baby has the other then they swop, so babies in special care can get use to mums smell.
Touch wood doing ok, few odd aches, it's nice as there so small, after all bedspreads. Next thing need to do blanket for the car xxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -

It sounds mad but it was a yr last weekend since we lost dad, in my heart of hearts, I allowed myself the yr to cope for want of a better word, but after that a kick up the rear and pull myself together - stop hoarding etc...
Hence - 3 bin bags worth charity shop, 2 bin bags for doggies home, books for vets - raising money for guide dogs.
Update on knitting.... now at 75 sets, ... still plodding along.

Mum2one, I'm sorry you had a difficult anniversary this year.
What did you mean by now having to give up hoarding? Does this mean you were buying more this past year or not moving forwards on previous plans of decluttering?
You're doing so well with knitting.0
