7 dictionaries!:eek:Well done on decluttering them!

Mind you,I have 6 French dictionaries of various kinds.:o

I obviously don't need the French dictionaries because now when I open my mouth to speak Swahili, out comes French! Probably both equally rubbish! :rotfl:

Evening! Well not quite the day i had planned. 3 hours into Husbands day off we were on the laptop fixing stuff (web developer) and that was on/off fixing for 4 hours Which took half our child free time up so a bit gutted really.

However, i managed to throw an old sandwich bag of half dead batteries out and 3 pairs of dd's knickers in last years age/size. Got 5 more items of clothes through the post from ebay (maternity as outgrew the smaller maternity size and ive 8 weeks left!) so need to try them on and relist any i dont like/that dont fit.

Depending on how i feel later i might be able to get some more stuff shifted.

Haven't done much over the weekend; due to have someone come last Saturday to look at the house, so frantic morning spent by hubby hoovering and dusting (I was at my quilt group). They didn't turn up; turns out they were expecting to come Sunday, so I didn't do much yesterday except 'potter'... and read... and sleep.... and wait for our viewers!

Today I disposed of:

54. Jigsaw - to parents to do
55. 2 greetings cards and 1 stamp used on posting them (in same envelope)
56. Lots of dowelling and bits of wood from old kitchen blinds - dad
57. 1 dried up biro - bin

Come to a bit of a standstill, need some enthusiasm. House looks tidy and as Bettie said earlier, it's so much easier to keep tidy and clean once there's reduced clutter. But on Saturday I shoved all the ironing into the wardrobe, and all my clothes that I had pulled out to sort out were all over the spare bed, and they went into a suitcase in the bedroom, and are still there. I will get around to sorting my clothes out... just not sure when!

I haven't done much over the last few weeks.

Finally I have managed to sort out our dry food cupboard and have written an inventory list of what we have got. I have made more paper logs from the paperwork that we have shredded.

Next thing on my list is to continue sorting out our utility room.

Well done to you all for your decluttering efforts.

3 chipped vases to bin
