    Todays list (to be edited as I progress)
    Out:
    Recycling - including the large cardboard boxes off my new fridge & freezer. I just cut the last one off (couldn't lift it as my ceilings are so low) just as I heard the recycling truck arrive so I took them out and smiled sweetly ;):D:j
    DD's old high sleeper and mattress :j:j

    Still pending out:
    Fridge Freezer - which should hopefully go before the weekend :D
    Polystyrene packaging - going to list it on Freecycle tomorrow once I've unpacked DD's bedroom furniture ;)

    Pending in:
    New Bed & mattress for DD

    In:
    Argos deliveries :D:j

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Mortgage-free Glee!
    Hi all,

    Back on the decluttering bandwagon again after a couple of months rest.

    I have cleared out my wardrobe today and have got two bags for the charity shop so will drop those off tomorrow.

    Have almost managed to get the spare room cleared out now as well, which will mean we have another guest room ready at last!
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D

    welcome back to de-cluttering haven angelavdavis
    xxjoxx I found it better to offer a big pile of cloths, preferably all the pile! LOL on freecycle. If no takers after 3 days then ditch the lot into a dustbin if you cant get to a charity shop. Eazy-peazy.

    Im back -






    And I seemed to have worked myself into a position where I am clearing stuff out of rooms, i.e. clothes etc, and then keeping it in an 'EBAY' pile and never getting round to listing stuff on Ebay cos its just so TIME-CONSUMING!!!

    Anyway - hopefully I can get on with it now! xx

    my ebay pile is the reason my house is a tip:rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: easy to solve that problem then, simply eBay the whole house, buyer to remove, postage a bit excessive:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:;)
