This got me thinking GQ.

Q. How long had I been putting off doing it?

Q. How long does it take to throw out a chipped bowl that annoys me every time I use it?
A. 3 seconds (didn't even wash it first :rotfl:) :T

Q. How long does it take to put away the boxes with all summer shoes that have been sitting on spare room bed for weeks, having finally accepted the fact I do not have time to photograph them & all and stick a picture on the front (I know, it's my 1 OCD action )?
A. About 2 minutes :T

Q. How long does it take to pile the stuff for ebay that has also been sitting on spare room bed for weeks, having finally accepted the fact I do not have time to do it right now, and stick in a box under bed?
A. About 2 minutes, including obligatory bracing self against wall and shoving :T

Q. How many deodorants do I need to have sitting on the side in bedroom at any one time?

Q. How long does it take to fetch from garage a screw thing for bottom of light for spare room so I can put up a lampshade?

I have decided I am going to make my elephant today. That way I can no longer ignore the elephant in the room! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

The "How long does it take... 2 minutes... so it's not worth whineing about then is it" theory is good

I remind ugly of that rule when I order him to do the ironing x

Good morning

Gonna put a few bits on the website today and finish sorting the birthstone earring orders. (for everyone who has ordered the birthstone earrings, please bear with me, My arm had decided not to work this week so everything is taking twice as long )

Plus I have a few commissionsI have to reserch the beads for.

Plus I need to get to the post office

Hi all

I love the idea of thinking about how long something really takes - I am terrible at thinking things are going to be much more time-consuming than they actually are

It's been great reading how your 100 day challenges have gone - as usual you inspire me to get on with things! Yesterday I started a blog which is something I've been meaning to do for ages

At last! A chance for me to contribute - what do you want it doing, I can do arms in the air:



or one arm in the air:


or did you want someone with ability to do it

Some paperwork problems now in progress instead of in procrastination.

I love that description.

Capsule wardrobe nearly complete. Still need black boots, long black cardigan and bras (sorry to mention that word again )

This is becoming increasingly important to me - I'm only decluttered about 30% with my clothes, but I'm on the way, at least.

Today we found my old vision statement and dream book from about 8 years ago. It has been disposed of to make room for my new perfect week and dream board (don't want it hidden in a book this time, rather for it to shout out loud to the universe that this is what I want).

This is the bit that shrieked out to me! How wonderful! And you *are* a mindreader, aren't you! I was going to put mine up in blu tak on the inside of the wardrobe - don't want blutak on the walls any more - but I'll do it on the *outside* now, thank you :j

ETA forgot to say that my favourite threadbare fleece went in the bin today.

This bit is also really, really impressive - favourite clothes - they may be tatty, faded, old fashioned (because they've been favourites for such a long time, lol) I find this really difficult.
