  • Triker - well good on you for realising that things have to change - dont get uptight about it though be methodical - take a section/shelf of the bookcase and work through it and decide what to keep and what to get rid honey - you will feel sooo much better afterwards - if its something you are not sure about then KEEP - the time is not right.
    Do what I am doing - one bit at a time - dont try to do the whole lot at once but make yourself do one part and not stop until it is finished then move on!
    go for it girl - mags can be taken to a home or hospital/ surgery or given away/ videos can be ebayed/freecycled/ charity shopd same with books - same with clothes! Go through a drawer while watching tv>

    That looks very sensible Toots... if you do that lot it shouldn't take you long, but will save you a lot of effort in the long run!
  • Evening Tootles! :wave: :wave: :wave:

    How are you babes????

    Mudders congrats on clearing the debt! that's fab news!!!

    Piggers mega congrats on the arrival of your beautiful Baby Niece. She's beautiful. And I'm delighted to hear that she's here safe and well.

    AnW'sMum sounds like your day was as good as it could have been. ((hugs)) to you, and I was thinking about you and your babies yesterday. And having discovered I had nothing yellow to wear, I visualised yellow glowing all around. ( very hippy, but it was lovely!! )

    I've been very disciplined toots and have created 10 listings on turbolister - they need finishing but photos and main bits are done.

    JayJay - I'll make some space now - sorry

    I have ordered an upgrade for DD1's contract.. my phone has about had it.. I'll bung it on ebay to get some of the money back and hopefully it will be fine. (N96 for you nosey peeps!)

    bed time I think because I want to get loads more done in my room tomorrow.. and start on boxing up the landing.. I'm sending hubby to post parcels in the morning.. and I have some more bits to put on ebay.. might do that through the week though.

    I am HOPING to make a start on the painting in my room sooner rather than later... I need to buy the paint for my room and for the kitchen at the same time.. 1 receipt. my whole room needs sanding first which I LOATHE doing.. so hubby can do that and I'll paint it.

    My list of jobs that need doing in the house is actually getting longer instead of shorter.. granted a fair bit has been added with the fire and DS1 moving out.. but still!!

    Bed time anyway so..

    Feed rabbits
    Feed cats
    Find bed (that'll take at least an hour!)
    pick up the rubbish off the floor in here (I've been 'filing' read as throwing stuff I don't want in a heap on the floor)

    At some point tomorrow I need to sort my finances for next week.. we get paid on Friday.. :D
