The Great Declutter - 18 months on

LilacPixie

I started my decluttering lastweek, just little bits at a time. I have 3 bin bags of clothes off to a charity shop.

I am spending today and tomorrow at home decluttering; so I'll keep updating this thread as appropriate.

Pending out (when bag is full) to charity: 1 canvas tote bag, 1 T shirt, 1 pair of trackie bottoms.

Out: 2 bags of rubbish including an appallingly stained old pair of trackie bottoms.

In: Some Open University bits through the mail.

Out tomorrow to CEX: 1 CD, 1 DVD and 1 boxset so I'll be getting some nominal amount of money.
