2 carrier bags of OH's old work stuff for him to sort(be interesting to see how long that takes,will report back when it has moved from the side of his chair lol)
In
1 new pair of glasses
I now have a major job of sorting all my photos as they were in the bedroom wardrobe,they are in the lounge in 2 yes TWO banana type boxes.
I have about 10 albums to put them in but they all need to be sorted and put in albums.

Woohoo, have had a right old declutter today. Double cupboard full of carp including seven years worth of paperwork, the one I was most dreading out of them all. It's taken me three hours but now I have a full-stuffed-to-the-brim carrier bag of paperwork awaiting shredding, loads of paper gone in recycling and a small bag of things to keep which have been transferred into an expanding wallet thing. Cupboard also washed out. Cupboard now has lots of space in it! God, I've got such a buzz from it.Start Date: 27/11/2010
Padding: Day 42
Target £8000
Amount: £562.230 -
Today I've decluttered the pens, pencils, felt tips, general detritus on my desk :rolleyes: I've gone from 3 pots of stuff to just 2 :T
I started on the cupboards in the sitting room - 2 have been done, and I've rediscovered nice clock to go in the dining room :T

Well done floozie, PP and Tudor Rose!
My next job is the mug cupboard. Kids are using a new cup/beaker every time they want a drink. Not any more! After tomorrow they can have a cup each!
Keep up the good work everyone! :T0 -
Hi All
I've been for a free day at a local hotel gym - gym/swim/sauna/jacuzzi...heavenso not done a lot, but did manage this morning to clear a box from hallway. It had 8 mirrors in it, so packaging has all gone to recycling and mirrors are on kitchen bench ready to be hung (hopefully tomorrow). Hallway looking slightly better - just need to find a place for the new garden table and chairs I bought in the summer sales to completely clear it :rolleyes:
In: Newspaper (freebie from hotel reception), pile of leaflets from hotel gym (will recycle once read), new boots for DS, and junk mail (straight in recycling).
Keep up the good work everyone :beer:GOD BLESS DURAN DURAN
