The Great Declutter - 18 months on

penguin83

I really need to join in with this again - my house is slowly disappearing under a mound of junk. I have so much stuff that can be sold, recycled, given away etc - kids clothes that have never been worn, toys that have never been opened. We also have a garage full of stuff that we still havent unpacked from when we moved in 4 years ago!

So today - nothing in and nothing out. Will make a start tomorrow night when I am home from work! x x

Made a start - went into DD's room and found 3 jackets she hasn't worn in years on the back of the door, been there so long she just didn't see them any more! And her sleeping bag in the airing cupboard - long since abandoned since she reached the grand old age of 12 LOL

thats stuff OUT to charity shop tomorrow

Grrr, just lost my post.
Out: Hated net curtains from lounge. smashed glass. Have permission to get rid of shot glasses from cupboard (never use them). Piles and piles of rubble from under window. Empty box of cat food.
In: 2 doors, 4 packs skirting board, curtain tie backs, curtain pole.

I LOST a cup of coffee last week. I may have drunk it but as the house is such a mess I can't be sure.
Work rang me earlier to work tonight instead of Friday (suits me!) so when I've picked up DS from school I need to iron my uniform. So I'll do all of the ironing (go me!).
