I'm still in the middle of littleys room, I've found 40 things up to now to chuck, I'm busy going through her clothes but it's difficult to know what still fits without her here to try stuff on, so I've chucked what I know wont fit and will leave the rest till she gets back. Floor is tidy so is her wardrobe and drawers, the dressing table is :eek: but I've taken all the rubbish off it just bobbles and smellies etc left on it....I'm getting there, ooooh and I damp wiped all the living room and it's door so that's another thing crossed off.
