    52. Too small bra – charity bag

    55. Pair of too small lacy tights – rag recycling
    56. Pair of too small black tights – rag recycling
    57. Bag of soapnuts – found these utterly useless – would maybe work better with soft water? – bin
    58. Large handful of salad cream/ mayonnaise sachets – very old – bin
    59. Selection of plastic pots from nice desserts – recycling. I have enough ceramic ramekins so why was I keeping them?!

    On a roll today! Decided to tackle the coat cupboard. I rehomed the kids' jackets to their wardrobes and uncovered a few bits:


    148: old college bag DS doesn't use any more - CS
    149-150: two manky handbags well past their best - bin
    151: one VERY old and manky roller blind from the kitchen that toxic ex held onto "because you never know...." - bin
    152: one small piece of what appears to be wood-effect vinyl flooring (see 151) - bin
    153: one bag of odds and ends that went with the long-since departed vacuum cleaner - bin
    154-158: five of the magazines passed on by mum - recycled. Another five to go today - can't resist doing the puzzles!


    I'm really enjoying getting down into the nooks and crannies now. Still lots to do, but I'm getting there!

    46) - 49) 4 more Disney princess dresses, sold for £8 total. Feeling sad that I will never see my 5 year old dress up in them again but keeping them won't change her personality, and I am actually quite proud of the fact she doesn't want to conform to stereotypes ;)

    50) 3 letters confirming my kids' registration at new GP, it said on the letter to keep them but I couldn't see any reason to. I've just written their NHS numbers in the back of my(freebie & very nice) diary. There's too much hanging on to paperwork in this house!
