The (Flylady inspired) Anniversary Declutter Mission

Karmacat

Paperwork is definitely my thing too - books, magazines, the odd newspaper I've kept, old paperwork of my own, things I've been meaning to do, its dreadful :rotfl:

To think about 20 years ago there was talk of a paper free world with the introduction of computers - how wrong they were!

Planning on getting DS2's pictures done on Tuesday this week and hopefully the sewing box/defuzzing tomorrow - I really want to get my list finished by the end of the month.

I'm going to start a flylady goes outside thread on the greenfingered board later in the week so I'll post a link in case any of you want to join me:D

Dusty - Ill join your gardening one, need to think about what should be done and when so you'll be my inspiration

Still decluttering here - got nearly 3 bin bags of rubbish out of DD's room this week so that was brill [she likes to hoard] will try to do DS room next and then ours, we have big cupboards in there where all the tat goes and I'm sure better use could be made of them

Going to declutter alot of money this month as both cars have to be MOT'd and mine needs a service too so will be trying to think of cheap things for the kiddies to do over the 2 weeks hols - why am I always skint at hol time sigh!!

Everyone deserves a huge pat on the back for doing so well

toots,

I must write a list like yours. Then maybe I will spend less time going around in circles here:)
I will wait for the next rainy day. I am going to make the most of the warmth outside today.

pooh I find I need to have things written down - I know my lists get totally out of hand but they act as reminders - I liked this thread as you could group together the similar types of jobs! xx

oh I have just realised while looking back at my list i can cross off 'ebay navy shoes' I have done it and they have been bought! will just edit my post for now.

Hello all, I'm afraid I fell off the decluttering wagon way back but will jump back on in the morning if thats ok, Dusty?

Will borrow some of your list if you don't mind Toots, looks like a plan to me xx

Hi Tooch - I was thinking today that I need to get on and finish my list - not much left if I remember correctly. I got side tracked by starting a spring clean but this week I will aim to finish my paper tasks.
