Good luck with the test results.

I think I still have a half-finished christening gown somewhere that I started to knit when I found out I was pregnant, and DS is now 33 :eek:

I have a cobweb shawl still on the needles that I started for DD1, tried again for DD2. DD1 now 21! :rotfl:

I've come home from work ill, could not sit there any longer struggling to talk. My ebay box is full up again so going to list those from bed. Laptops are the best! I've got quite a lot of stuff for the charity shop now, just saving it all up to do a car load and then can go to the tip afterwards. I'm taking it to a new charity shop, probably next Wednesday. I went in there the other day and they had hardly anything in there! It really looked bare and quite depressing to be honest.

I love LOVE LOVE this thread. I feel SO at home here... :rotfl:

The Christening gown sounds so like me (except mine's a carrying cape I started for DD - now 23. I do a few more lines every time somebody gets pregnant )

Ditch 100 in February 64/100

Not done a lot of decluttering as been working late every night. BUT I've got a guest coming to stay in a couple of weeks, so HAVE to get moving this weekend.

Extras to add will be:

65 8 pairs of holey knee-high stockings (wear trousers a lot) - Bin
66 Old cardigan - buttons removed and to bin

I've got a bag of clothes I'm not going to wear any more, some fitted sheets etc I don't use and some old towels waiting to disappear too. But will wait till I've ditched them.

Can't get my sig to work properly either, so I'm going to update it here instead.

Ditch 100 in February 66/100

Quick question - I have erm... several books I'd like to declutter. I know you can scan book barcodes with a Smartphone - but:

a) Which phones? (DD says her Blackberry does, but she's too far away to ask her to do it; DS doesn't know if his clone will and I don't have a Smartphone!)
b) How do you do it? I am a techno-dumbo and would have to tell DS.

If you go on the websites, you can just type the barcode in HTH xx

Few more from me
71-75 - random toiletries I've just used up, why do they all run out at the same time? Good job I've got a good stock! xx
