Look at my decluttered dining room! Nearly finished now
http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=276089&id=576079456&l=0f6012836f I'll get back into the getting rid of stuff in the next few days hopefully.

That looks lovely :A, give the cat a cuddle from me

I dropped off a black bag of stuff to the charity shop.
Came away with 2 books, oooppsssey! One is a history one that OH will love too - piccies of Bertie (king's speech). It's like a ye old Hello magazine!

Listed some bits of freecycle. Notice our local group was getting a bit quiet so thought it would be good to try and encourage others to do the same.

OH No!

Hi All
not posted in a while been busy with work and then on holiday with the family. Still decluttering and seem to have passed the bug on to a few friends and family members.
Kaz the pics are great:A, fingers crossed my front room will look that good soon too.
At present i have another 7 carrier bags to go to the cs, eventually got round to doing the kitchen cupboards (no one else to blame for the crap in them but me, so many useless "time-saving gadets" gone, must have spent hundreds of pounds on them over the years!!:eek: oh well lesson learnt)
Had arranged a tip trip for next week but have had to cancel due to work, so the computer desk will have to stay another week, but on with the decluttering, starting to see the improvement:D

I've been watching a few of those Making Space programmes, I've decided I have seen them before - I think the lady is a bit patronising but I do like them, the life laundry was better though.

A few ins here this week.
3 DVDS and a book and a few more on their way - but they were careful purchases and we've been really good money wise this month.
OH bought some stuff for his new train layout yesterday too, he didn't like the other one he was part way through building and so dismantled it 3 months ago when we thought we might be moving, no interest on house and so I've suggested he starts another one - but he's going to build it in such a way that he can take it apart and store more easily.


Some outs:
12 Cosmetic things to the Give and Make up appeal and a shoe box to put them in!
4 ebay sales posted.

Got my cheque from Music Magpie so will be paying that in tomorrow!

Going to do some ebaying later after having a break from listing last weekend, so nothing to post out tomorrow but one NPB I need to deal with.

Finally feeling better thanks to antibiotics and fingers crossed this is me better for a while now - 5 weeks of colds and coughs have knocked it out of me, will be very glad when February is gone.

Hope everyone feels better soon

I've bought some more photo frames today and will be framing some lovely photos. PS Wilkinson are super cheap and do lovely frames. :A

I've got rid of some stuff via Freecycle - always handy for getting rid of "odd" stuff.

Off to put some washing on and have a nap, aaah who cares!

That looks great - and your cat is beautiful

I preferred Life Laundry, too. I'm glad you're feeling better.

Decided to 'declutter' my PC last night! The programme took so long while I was waiting I sorted out the pile of paperwork in my 'in tray' (should be 'all tray') now all neat & tidy & PC running a lot more smoothly & quickly - off to declutter the veg box for dinner tonight!

Evening All,
Just popping in to say I have just de cluttered and re-tidied the food cupboards - not intentionally - was looking for baking powder to make muffins, swore blind I bought some last week, couldn't find it so pulled everything out - sending some food over to DD1 in a food parcel,some old stuff to bin(inc.some mustard expired 2002 eek) and put everything back in some sort of order - but never found the baking powder!

I think that it is easy to forget that data also counts as clutter.

I have listed 30 things on e-bay today.

Callisto

In

Book and DVD (treated myself!)

Memory card and reader for camera as would only take 12 pictures using internal memory!

Wii Fit game borrowed from sister - (really need to get back into exercising and hope this will help!)

Craft knife, paintbrushes, glue and jigsaw blades for OH's 'project'

Out

Got rid of some out of date paperwork

Sheet and four pillowcases to recycling bank (too poor condition to go to charity shop)

Three Ebay parcels posted

Pending Out

Two tops and a belt added to charity bag

Twenty items listed on Ebay - have more to list, but ran out of time and patience!
