The Great Declutter Part 2

Sequeena

Sicne the kittens were born yesterday I have done NOTHING. I even had a takeaway because I have no energy to cook :eek: I'm going to try and sort some stuff out tonight so hopefully today wouldn't have been a complete waste.

Ok so I managed to quickly get some things done...

Out

- Bag of paper recycling
- Bag of cardboard recycling

I've also managed to put a load of washing into the tumble dryer (bedding for the kittens) and another load of washing into the machine. Dogs are walked/fed/watered. Mummy cat is fed/watered/got a clean litter tray/kittening box changed and kittens are full and sleeping.

I think I deserve a glass of wine before checking on the kittens again, setting my alarm to go off at 2 hour intervals and getting up to clean the house before my new bed and mattress arrives :eek:

Karmacat

Sequeena, you're getting up at 2 hour intervals? You poor thing - hope you can go back to normal sleep in the next few days.

I went up to the loft yesterday, scary scary place, and this is my *out* list:
- slabs of polystyrene
- tatty corners of insulation foam, really dirty and nasty, just a little bag of those.
- antique log basket and two chairs out - they're full of woodworm.
- more polystyrene (cups, this time, oops).
- lots and lots of magazines into the recycling.
- normal recycling out today.
- am shredding old diaries with confidential stuff in, luckily the recycling is being collected today.

Pending out:
- set of curtains - yep, from the loft
- old pair of trousers.
- lots and lots of books - withdrawn from amazon, they're never going to sell, postage means they're way over the minimum amounts on offer, and I'm moving in 4 - 6 weeks, no way I'm taking them with me.

Sequeena

Yes karmacat I was thinking of sleeping in the spare room with mum and kittens but my back won't allow me to so I'm getting up every 2 hours just to check everyone is ok and that mum has enough food/water/clean litter

In

- New bed and mattress :j
