Paper Gremlins again, are they attracted by the smell of onions
Nope, not the study this time, the spare bedroom. Started off ok, made the bed up and packed away the Xmas stuff. Then it truly became the room of doom as I decided to sort out all the clothes I had in the spare wardrobe, box under bed and drawer. These are in there because they are:
- evening wear
- a few things for fancy dress
- stuff I bought when I lost weight but which I never quite fitted into
- and em........ stuff that SHOULD fit me:o.
So, decided to try them all on :eek::eek::eek:.
"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fattest of them all?"
"Do I really have to answer that, lard *rse?"
Had to stop for a sit down due to the horror of it all. Some stuff is going to be ebayed, the rest will be divided into:
"1/2 stone - 1 stone off clothes"
"1 - 2 stone clothes"
"Better keep going if you ever want this baby to fit clothes" :rotfl:A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

Sympathy about your room of doom, gally. If it's defined as a room that needs majorly tidying and decluttering, then I have four and a half of them.Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49

The room can get decluttered in no time.
It's the fat I'm carrying that will take longer to declutter.

My minuscule rate of decluttering over the last seven and a half years since I split from X would indicate that I am not capable of decluttering in no time, even if it's possible for other people.
Good luck with getting rid of the fat and the clutter and the mortgage.Starting again 13/4/19Home loan 1: £21,102.50 Home loan 2: £7,698.99Total owed: £28,801.49
