Evenin' all!
Sorry to hear your news Tooch, wishing you peace of mind.
a good flying day today! Been to I**a tonight, got DD a set of drawers for her room, will go back another day for the wardrobe & possibly another set of drawers. DH has moved her TV over to the other side of her room, a much better use of space & of course with the new furniture DD is having a good clear-out.

Just wanted to say thanks for this thread, it really inspired me today.
Although I didn't actually follow your list (I will in future!) I did completely clear out and hoover my DS's room which has been a dumping ground for far too long (he's only 2 so hasn't moaned bless him) and leave a bag of clothes out for the charity collection. Oh and I also finally listed my buggy on Ebay. I consider this a great triumph
I am now going to try and do some clearing every day, as well as the general cleaning....

I don't really have anything to cross off today
Still feeling poorly but I did get some work work done.
It's nice to read other's acheivementsSorry to those who haven't such a good day today
I did venture into no mans land which is the old range/fireplace in our hall. I had no idea how disgusting it was! Wiped down all the obvious bits but then thought I'd brush the walls of it and I filled a dustpan with dirt, soot and brickdust! Realised the chimney isn't properly sealed off so no wonder that room gets so dusty! Did my best with it, filled the room with choking dirt and brick dust after I'd already dusted everything else in the room, but I do feel a bit better knowing why the room gets so dirty(!) and realise that it can and should be a feature. I will at some point take to it with a wire brush, make H seal it up properly from above and give it a polish.
Still feeling positiveSome of you have such huge lists! I'll try and keep mine small and celebrate minor acheivements!
Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

I consider this a great triumph
sometimes it's these niggly little jobs that defeat us!
and sometimes we just shelve stuff untilwe can 'get around to it'
keep that triumphant feeling and build on it tomorrow!Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Hi all, in late again, bluddy work is taking far too much of my time up these days.
