OK - I have done a little more.......
Yesterday, I tidied and cleaned the kitchen a bit - surveyor came to view and hope fully give us a new one... Cleaned and cleared window sill, wiped front of all appliances, and put loads of stuff away in correct place. Looks a bit better now.
In the bedroom today, I have changed all of my coathangers to some new ones - all matching and looks much better -
20 Coathangers going to CS.
Unpacked and hung up some more clothes. Emptied last big box of Wii bits and stored away.
21 large box to recycling
Changed bed and did washing - in tumble dryer as we speak.0 -
Half term and I'm back. Planning on getting the suitcases down from the wardrobes and going through them. They contain a lot of my winter clothes. Will then pack the last of my summer clothes away.
Also got the boys wardrobes to sort, October is traditionally our get ready for winter month.
Planning on an "autumn clean" so will declutter as I go.
Have fun

Well by the sounds of things everyone's doing really well with the decluttering :T
Yesterday I got stuck into DD's bedroom. I have 4 black bin bags of toys ready for CS, 1 black bin bag for bin and a small bag of clothes that Dd has grown out of. I'm giving these to her school as they are collecting clothes for Cash for Clothing for school funds.
I sorted Dd's chest of drawers and swapped all her summer clothes into storage boxes under her bed and brought out her winter stuff. Not much seems to fit her though as she has just had a growth spurt.
Went to Lidl for f&v, came back to find a huge pile of mail. I've sorted it all straight away. Did 2 loads of washing and put them into the tumble dryer so they weren't cluttering up the place.
I've just finished a huge basket of ironing, but haven't done anymore decluttering xx

Today has gone as planned so far. All ive done RE decluttering/tidying is emptying the bins and move some stuff im selling into the office. So so tired so expect to get VERY little done tonight. Infact any time i do get i will be slobbing with the husband to watch 'Lost'.

I have got a mind to go through my chest of drawers tomorrow (day off) and seeing what I don't use.:)
Oh and I did sort out all my HM jars of jam and chutney.Everything was in a bit of a muddle.
Hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with an update.Happy decluttering!0 -
Can I join you please?
I used to be a terrible terrible hoarder but when I turned 40 I chucked my ''life away''.. well that's how it felt because nearly everything i had kept for 20+ years I just got rid of.
Things are starting to creep back though so I desperately need to keep ontop of things.
I just want a tidy house with everything put away, doesnt seem too much to ask!
