A nice start for me this month:
1 - 10. clothing to recycle
11 - 12. monster huge hangers (Mr T has a collection bin so have put them into my shopping bags)
13-15. Magazine to CS.

Lots to do in the attic still, and the cupboard under the stairs is packed out again :doh:I swear the shoes breed!

Welcome all new declutters!! :T

I've made a start:
1. Coat to CS
2. Leather trousers (they are too small - & I am too old to wear them now anyway) to CS

These are the items that have actually left the building.

Tomorrow the following - which I sorted out this afternoon - will leave, all to CS:
3. plastic bags
4. clothes for rags
5. shoes for rag man
6. clothes to sell
7. boots, shoes & sandals, too small to sell

I can now get to my wardrobe only having to step over one thing :rotfl:

Go get it out and bung it on ebay!!!

Sorry pigpen, I think it was just too manky!

I've just been on the phone to an old friend I've not seen for a while. They were saying they really enjoyed the shops and often went away with an almost empty suitcase just so they would have room to bring things home. That almost physically hurt me - I think this thread has really got to me in the best possible way. Thank you all.

More cleaning than decluttering today: all windows, sills & mirrors in the house cleaned, and kitchen cupboards cleaned and reorganised, which did involve some chucking. Kitchen looking very nice (except the mess on top of the fridge and the worksurface of doom by the kitchen table - ssh!)

Also fixed the bathroom window and planned a rough idea of how the garden should look when I make a start on it. Put lots of clothes away tidily too.

Bedroom is still a bombsite, but hey, there's still time!
