Decluttering 2012, this year, definitely ...

Igamogam

I kinda slowed down a bit after the initial impetus but I determined to get going again in April - have 2 weeks off so no excuses. Taking DD1 to airport tomorrow so that is most of day dealt with but will start in earnest on Monday once OH safely out of the way at work;)

Penny-Pincher!!

Have got rid of:

More books! Got to know a custody sergeant and she's willing to take them all.
Old picnic box
Shredder
Clothes
Toiletries
Old trainers
Bags

A massive well done for some amazing efforts.

The decluttering madness continues here. I have decluttered under the stairs. I now have a load of carrier bags, recycling and general rubbish waiting to go tomorrow.

It's very liberating getting rid of stuff.

73. Empty container from garage
74. Booklet about digital swithover
75. Packaging from new clock
76. Book to sister

Not quite the 100, but am happy with the amount of stuff that has disappeared from the house over the last two months. School hols now, so am in for some serious cupboard delving. wuill try for another 100 in April.

Thanks to you all for your inspiration to get some order into my home.

Well I was too lazy to do the last 17 last night so I did 83/100 in March.. but that was over 3 days.. I am now going to look at 100 for April...

Have started April well today, clearing out one living room cupboard and one kitchen cupboard, I have a huge amount of books and dvd's priced up on zapper, just need to find a box to fit them all in now so won't declare them out till they are packed up ready to go
I have 2 bin bags of stuff from cupboards including toys, old discs with films on, old instruction booklets, old school letters, 5 empty bottles of bubbles (!), dried up playdoh, playdoh cutters, used workbooks and many more documents and letters. All ready to go into the appropriate bins. I will declare this lot to be 20 out, I know if I counted up separately it would be much more though

Well done to everyone who achieved their decluttering goal in March :T
I didn't manage much in March but my average for January to March is 92.67! If I can get rid of 122 things this month I'll increase the average to 100. I know it's not just about the numbers but having a goal motivates me.
Visitors staying overnight on Wednesday so I've got a great incentive. Off to tackle the dreaded bedroom cupboard...

I currently have a zapper list of 58 items :eek: so I am changing my April target to 200 :j
