    I've actually started to enjoy myself - is this normal or should I be seeking professional help??

    No, it's perfectly reasonable to enjoy getting things into some sort of order, whether through flying or decluttering: you'd be amazed how much better you feel after a good clean or sort out. Especially in terms of the time saved. Not to mention money... :D

    That'll be this then



    Hi folks,

    This coming Saturday, January 15th, we are planning on taking down the Forum for a time to install some new code. This is part of ongoing work and you won't really notice much difference initially.

    The work will start mid-morning and while we anticipate being down approximately 8 hours. I'll provide more specific details here later in the week.

    Ok - havent gotten to the list yet - but have been through all the clothes in the LO's room again as he has taken a stretch again and the clothes bought just before xmas are getting a bit short in the leg!!

    So - have filled a bag for a friend and a bag for the charity shop and have filled a basket for the ironing lady. Have sorted out two loads of dry laundry which have been waiting on being ironed/put away. That has all now been folded to go straight into drawers or into the basket for the ironing lady...

    I really need to have a sort out of my drawers next and get rid of more carp - I seem to just be hoarding clothes. despite having had several clear outs! .... I never seem to have room to put my clothes away so there is always the excuse to leave stuff in the ironing basket cos there is no where else for it to go... sad, I know. :)

    I have also listed two chairs on Ebay - I dont expect them to get much but it all goes to decluttering, cleaning and making some cash while im at it so who knows - even if I get 99p, they are out of the way and it saves me a trip to the tip and the cost of fuel :D xx
