    Hello :hello:
    Mind if I join in too? I'm the world's worst hoarder!! :o

    I've been making a little start on de-cluttering, but apart from a couple of bags of clothes to charity shop and clothes bin, I've mostly just been moving it around (with the help of two boisterous children!) :rolleyes:

    New sofa arrived today, which I 'bought' (HP: omg what was I thinking! :doh:) a few weeks ago in a mad moment :mad: Anyway, that's another story. It's here, and we can hardly move in the lounge now lol, so it's a big kick up the backside to DE-CLUTTER!

    So, here we go.. <takes a deep breath>

    In:
    1. Gigantic sofa! :eek:
    Out:
    1. Stand up black/white board which the boys have wrecked.
    2. Bin bag + carrier bag full for clothes bin

    I don't think you've quite got the hang of decluttering :eek: :p!
    Since I last posted on here i have been at it like a mad woman. We cleared out the shed, the cupboard under the stairs, some of the kitchen cupboards and everyones wardrobes and floordrobes. DS has a new bed and DD has a new mattress. In total I have probably got rid of 2 transit vans full of stuff. There is more to go but I'm pleased to say, not much more! The clutter that is around now is mainly stuff for ebay or decorating items ready for when DH gets started again on the DIY. I really want this to be soon because I've kitchen bits and 2 doors plus sliding door fitting kits cluttering up my hall way.
    My house is looking much bigger and better and I'm feeling more at home in it than ever before.
    Debt: 16/04/2007:TOTAL DEBT [strike]£92727.75[/strike] £49395.47:eek: :eek: :eek: £43332.28 repaid 100.77% of £43000 target.
