Good luck with the cupboard of doom - I had one of these!! It was the cupboard under my stairs and it was full of rubbish!! Boxes of stuff Ive moved house with several times and not even opened.....old bank statements etc, so I cant just chuck them out either!!
I managed to get hold of two small bookcases which fit in the cupboard under the stairs from freecycle and unpacked some of the books, photos, dvds etc and put them on the bookshelves. Along with cookery books I didnt have room for in the kitchen! I moved the sinful boxes of rubbish that I still need to go through and put them in the dining room along with the shredder for me to file or destroy as appopriate. They have been cluttering up my dining room for about 5 months now!!:rolleyes:
I will get to this eventually and have added 10 mins shredding to my dailies list (which I only created yesterday!!) so my plan is Babysteps.....:rotfl:
Im hoping I might get through it all eventually and not even noticed that I did it!
Best of luck with yours - you will get there!!Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

Did well in my HHC but feel really grim now - not sure if it is the fact I had chocolate for breakfast and my BS has gone odd or if I'm coming down with something. I've now had a banana, an orange and a cheese sandwich and some para plus so hopefully will feel better soon.
Going to do a couple of jobs on here sitting down then HHPThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Well, I've done really well!
It still strikes me how little time it really takes once you get going. I always procrastinate on cleaning jobs because I feel it's going to take me forever and I just can't get myself to do it.
But with a list like that it motivates.. AND I keep finding out it's really not such a big deal as I thought it was. :cool:
Soo... just one more thing to do and my list is completed as well.
Just having a cup of tea now and nursing a 4 year old with an ear ache.
Then off to fold and put away that washing and I'll be done!0
