    I have now decluttered my wardrobe and drawers. I have made a bit of a mess whilst doing so, now need to polish and vac but it's so hot.

    Shredded a load more paper and got rid of some general rubbish. I have also done some more painting of the fence - it's looking good.

    Have a coat to go to charity, it will be delivered within the hour as need to take DS3 out.

    have fun everyone

    Not much decluttering here, unless you count the weed free back garden! Did manage to take the mountain of black sacks to the rubbish tip today. Only one thing decluttered:

    63. Couple of books returned to a friend.

    Hope everyone has a great evening x
