52 - receipts and other paperwork – shredded/recycled
53 & 54 Packaging from 2 jars of face cream recycled

In

Nothing

Out

One bag of rubbish and one bag of recycling from spare room

Pending Out

Several soft toys and a book into charity bag
Two books to be returned to Mum
Yet more items added to the sell on Ebay pile, there is still at least three boxes full to sell, but I'm not in the mood at the moment!

Feel like I'm spending far too much time at work and having hardly any 'fun' time at home - all chores and sorting out rubbish I should have got rid of years ago! Still haven't decorated the living room, which OH said he would take the lead on - I will be waiting forever if I leave it to him, but just don't have the time to do it all myself! (Sorry, rant over...)

Hi Callisto - i know what you mean. I done so much cluttering and only now the loved one is really really helping. Things getting on top of me is one of the main reasons I'm decluttering so aggressively, I just want things to be easier. The more stuff you have the less you seem to be able to do. Sending you hugs and encouragement.:A

Please can I join in? I have so much carp & clutter it's completely overwhelming me, I need to ebay like a crazy woman. Also get totally ruthless, I have clothes in every size from 12-22, who am I kidding that one day I will get back into my 14's again?
Looking at it all is so depressing that I have to eat a load of biscuits to try & perk myself up again.
At the moment I'm only on page 4, so I'm not sure how this works other than maybe get rid of 100 things in 10 days.
So I'm going to have another cup of tea, read a few more pages & then get going.
Mind you this MSE forum lark may save money but it doesn't half steal a lot of a non renewable resource=time.
My name is Hermum & I'm an addict, addicted to hoarding & faffing on the MSE forum, please help me.
