    It's never too late! I'm going to have to bow out for a while as have a really bad back.

    I've sent 10 parcels in the week so some stuff is getting out the door!

    I've been sorting out my study (and therefore filing cabinet :eek:) - I've been counting one bin bag of shred as one item.

    Well here goes, With the exception of having to work on Saturday I'm now not back at work until September 3rd. I am going to go and have another go at DD's bedroom whilst she's at school as I find I can't do anything about the clutter when she's around . She'll sit and watch me try to sort through it but refuses point blank to help and I just feel so uncomfortable with her watching me trying to sort out the mess she has made and refusing to help me at the same time. Plan for today and tomorrow whilst she is at school I am going to try and finish off getting rid of all the clutter in her bedroom.
    loobylou2.Proud to be dealing with my debts and aiming to sort out the mess in 2013!!!!:eek:

    Havent been on here for a while but the progress continues!

    43. Two tins of paint out of the shed
    44. An assortment of other small odds and ends out of the shed/garden
    45. An old biscuit tin
    46. A chipped mug
    47. A bottle of out of date salad dressing
    48. An old pepper pot
    49. An empty olive oil bottle - no idea why it was still in the cupboard!

    Confession time. I have a thing about keeping margarine tubs/ice cream tubs. It seems such a shame to throw them out as I keep thinking they will be useful. I have chucked several of these this morning. (50).
