    Hi, :hello:

    Have been reading various decluterring/organised home posts/websites over last few weeks and came across this thread. Can I join it please Pigpen as I'm in need of a hand to get organised.

    I start doing one job and then find something else and get distracted, so things don't always get finished!!

    Well yesterday wasn't so good since we've moved our bedroom is the home of unpacked boxes and a clothes shop (we had no wardrobes or drawers yet :rolleyes:) but I put together a chest of drawers (Tesco Value for £25) and they are tiny and hardly fit anything in but I thought it was better than nothing and they took 5 hours to put togther:eek: but I got our bedroom looking a lot better and I intend to finish it today along with todays list so I can get those 2 more stars to make it 4/4 :D

    Haven't had time to read through the past couple of days yet but I will do :) I'm hoping to learn some names on here and get some good like minded friends :)

    Happy FLying all

  • :hello: newbies - welcome to the getting tidier madhouse

    Have got until 1pm to have a quick whizz round before I go to my mums - I offered her as part of her birthday pressie 5 days worth of decluttering help so I'm going this afternoon to put together a list of what needs doing where and hopefully get started on sorting out her clothes first as they're all over the place - she's got loads of stuff that needs car-booting but I'm going to try and persuade her to get rid of the clothes to the charity shop or the tip - wish me luck!!

    Am going to have a general HHC whizz now to get my bum in gear

    See you at 12
