MsHalffull ~ well done you’ve been busy! :T
Different Corner ~ that’s a good start, well done! :T


A fairly busy day but not much went out. I moved everything at the foot of my bed, which included an elitipical (sp?) exercise machine (not used in nearly 3 years!! ), 3 boxes of stuff, 4 bags of stuff, managed to get to the chest of drawers behind it, organised the drawers, vacuumed on the carpet that hasn’t seen the light of day since we moved in 6 years ago, but put everything back as it was.

Spent the afternoon cooking lovely roast lamb for Easter/DH b/day. Managed to decorate the cake at 2am!!! (it was hiding in the microwave). Sorry mineallmine ~ no time to take a picture of it, most of it got eaten!! It was only a chocolate sponge with buttercream and decorated with crushed up flakes and loads of mini eggs!! Not on the same scale as the cupcakes. We all feel quite sick after gorging ourselves on lamb, cake and choccie eggs!


In

• Nothing! :T

Out

• Wrapping paper and envelopes from DH’s birthday (recycled)
• Mr Men baby slippers (charity)
• Bag of small toys (charity)
• 2 kids t-shirts (charity)
• Old stained tissue paper (bin)
• Bits of cardboard packing (recycling)

Pending

• 8 items on turbo lister

Done!
　

• Washing up done ~ loads today!! :eek:

Morning
I claimed I was going to start on the DVD's today, but in the mood for chucking out, therefore it will be the bedside draws.

Morning All, had a good weekend, DS2 came home for the weekend with the big car so took old paintings (found in loft and all warped), a large tub of concrete (?) and other rubbish to tip.

He was visiting friends so he took a single bed that has been lurking in the garage - no-one else has a car big enough! This has made the garage much better and there is a slight chance of being able to get new car in one day soon!

A few easter eggs were de-cluttered too!!

Feel I am getting somewhere now, everything seems so much better in the house and garage. Just wish we had a weekly bin collection so I could do more in the garden and shed.

Enjoy the rest of the holiday!

Wow I'm exhausted reading that Different_Corner! It feels so good doesn't it? I've got rid of lots this year and finally it's coming together. Best of luck with those drawers! Be ruthless!

Oo and dont forget freecycle. Someone on there woudl have probably taken the joystick/speakers. If you dont do it, maybe you know someone who does. I've just got rid of loads of old pc bits. One mans rubbish and all that.


Hey purplevamp that cake sounds lush, would you share the recipe with your next post! See you've been busy too!
