    The Gas Man Cometh today - so the understairs cupboard has been cleared, 3 coats in the wm and winter stuff back in its right home. I also found the missing 'metal tube' that means I no longer have to bend in half when using the cleaner!

    Morning folks,

    Have started as I mean to go on this morning by chucking out loads of old drinking bottles before the bin men come and take away the recycling.

    So,

    9 Drinks bottles to the bin.

    Happy decluttering.:)

    Happy Birthday Sue14 enjoy your special day.

    I don't list individual items or count them, I just post at the end of the day with a general update.

    There will be some "ins" today as we are shopping for school uniform. We have made lists of what each child needs. When we come home we will chuck out the old uniform. I prefer to do it this way, I worry that we will chuck stuff out then wont be able to get new blazers etc (one supplier) in the right size!

    Loving this weather, it means I can wash and dry stuff as I'm decluttering. We sorted out youngest DS's coats yesterday he has outgrown one but a hand-me-down from his brother fits so it went straight in the wash and is now ready for winter.

    DD has also tidied her room and produced a bag of rubbish/recycling. Decluttering ticking along nicely. I will have a clutterfree organized home before I return to shool in September.

    Have a good day.

    Probably won't be doing much tomorrow as it's my birthday, and I'll be busy playing with my new toy, a tablet PC which OH has bought me, then tomorrow night we're going for a few drinks with DS and his GF.

    Happy Birthday Sue, hope you have a wonderful day xx

    Thanks Pigpen & Frugalgal I think I'll just list my decluttering and not the everyday items that I'd normally throw away or recycle.....still trying to get the post-holiday washing down, seems like a nice day so hopefully I'll get most of it dried outside :-)
