    A day of flinging and Eb*ying. Got to the stage now when there looks if there is more than when I started:rotfl: Wheelie bin full. Recycle boxes full .Lots of bag to go to Oxf*m and cloths weigh in place and lots of listings on Eb*y and Fr**gle - anything that doesnt go from either of these I will putting in CS bags. Also got lots of stuff to take to work next week.

    Have neglected the garden where I would have much rather been but then is probably why in the past the clutter has built up!

    Tonight is defrosted HM soup and bread from freezer - trying to declutter there too. We are going out tomorrow for a 'celebratory' lunch so it will be sandwiches for tea but have defrosted some pork loin chops to cook in SC with what I am not sure - probably passata peppers and chorizo and served with baked spuds for Monday night - gosh feeling a little smug and organised:rotfl:

    Planning on staying up tonight and getting work plans finished so tomorrow I can have a clear run into the new week:) Payday Monday!!!!

    Tomorrow is face the frogs day again.........I wonder what joys and tales they will bring. It will certainly be a day of keeping the lid on the box although I guess most will be glad to be back into routine, structure and a bit of attention. Cant imagine what the school in Leeds is going through.

    On the money side of things I will be paying a CC bill with a tin full of 5ps - havent added it up yet but its very heavy £15 maybe?? I added weeks 17 18 19 and 20 to my CU account ( weekly saving challenge) so thats £210 saved with little effort:)

    Looking forward to the weekend already!

    What a difference a week makes weather wise..........wet and windy here :( feels cold enough to put the heating back on.

    Electricity company wanting to put up our DD from £38 ( and even then we are in credit each month) to £71. OH will be doing battle with them - their computers cant cope with the fact we use very little electricity in winter and more in summer!

    Work at home day today and I have lots to do - work very frustrating at the moment for various reasons. All very draining and fills my head most of the time so much so I have to remind myself to make sure I keep up the debt busting hobby!

    Going to clear a pile of work related paperwork this morning then do some housework so the weekend is relatively free to get back to the declutter, list on Eb*y and have a bit of down time.
