Hope to get a few more bits done off of my list this week but if the sun is shining I'll be concentrating on getting my garden in order (PenPen - fancy a thread - flylady goes outside:rotfl:).

Good luck to anybody joining in this week. I can definitely see a difference in my house.

Is this Monday paper? If so could be just the thread for me tomorrow.......6 boxes in the last few weeks seem to have appeared of paperwork

I have managed to list 9 jackets and 3 suits from weddings on ebay. I still have more to list but I am steadily reducing the carp in this house.

24 ps2 games about to go tomorrow or is it today?

I've woken up this morning in a ruthless mood and have already sorted the toiletry rack in the bathroom again and emptied a basket that was in there...does anyone else find that the first clear out gets rid of some stuff then the week after you can go back and be much more ruthless?

I'm also going to see if I joined freecycle here as I have a few bits that I could get rid of that way.

Definitely! I nearly always do it that way, cos I like to be sure that I want to get rid of stuff, and I can think more clearly 2nd time around

Our bin was full this week and the recycling overflowing .

Today I managed to get together a bag of hats, gloves etc for the charity bin. I've also freecycled some handweights and an electric steamer, both of which should be collected on Weds am (must make a note!)

As I had zero energy for the last two weeks I am going to start back at 1st and maybe 2nd today.
So, paperwork sorting and more clothes on ebay today.
