Oh I did - I have filled three bags!:beer:
Old shoes DD2 has outgrown, old school uniform, old LP's (don't tell OH!) old books, a teddy that DS received at a bizarre awards evening, an old fishing rod ( grandad said I've got a mate who can get DS a good fishing rod for Christmas - hence great excitement - what arrived would have looked old in the 1950's! Good thing a mate's dad knew where to get him some proper equipment.;);))
And a didgery doo :eek:- cos DD1 never mastered the double breathing - you don't need it for the flute or the oboe! And given her current physical condition ( she has ME) trying would be a waste of energy!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
More outs for me to report:
1. Tablecloth (Freegle)
2. Box of tableware (Freegle)
3. 2 eBay parcels (Post Office)
4. Large bag of kids books (Freegle)
Happy decluttering everyone!

I managed 5/50 things off the paperwork mountain yesterday - yippee! I have several things which are half done because dealing with some paperwork creates another 2 or 3 processes once you start them IYSWIM.
Will carry on working through the pile today and report back later.Decluttering Awards: 🏅🏅0 -

Haven't been keeping a tally for past couple of days, but have got rid of the following:
broken basket
lots of paperwork recycled
paperwork filed
paperwork shredded
falling apart bath bombs binned (just making a mess everywhere!!)
cardboard boxes recycled (crushed, so hard to reuse)
various bottles and jars from garage recycled
Have about a dozen ebay parcels to go tomorrow/ Thurs - all bar one have bundles/ job lots in, so lots of items going there. Also used up cardboard boxes, jiffy bags, bubble wrap and foam from packaging stash
Have been sorting leftover business stock in garage (hence some of above) - starting to look tidier and I know what I've got left for selling on ebay. Have also transferred some of the items to present stash under bed where possibleI am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soulRepaid mtge early (orig 11/25) 01/09 £124616 01/11 £89873 01/13 £52546 01/15 £12133 07/15 £NILNet sales 2024: £200 -
