    i had a couple of things collected by a freecycler today so that's good, just waiting for some people to be interested in other things.
    Spent the weekend sorting wedding stationery so no real decluttering done but i'm happy with what i did anyway and i know i'll get there in the end.

    Well done pigpen, you are getting loads done. DH took another 2 bags to the charity shop and visited the tip to recycle a load of plastic bottles and cardboard. Thats the boys wardrobes now sorted. Next job under the stairs in the bedroom, there looms a couple of tents and a mountain of other stuff that I've flung in and then quickly closed the door so it doesn't escape. It will be later on in the week before I have time to tackle it. I will get it done......I will get it done......I will get it done.............................

    Got rid of several things today through freecycle. Tomorrow I'm going to go through all my kitchen bits and pieces again and get rid of another load. I know when I eventually get my new kitchen, I'll want to buy some new stuff so I will need some space, won't I?
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Well I've had two job lots of young baby clothes on Ebay in the last couple of weeks that have gone for £20 each.....and they weren't all that. If it's only going to cost a few pence to list, I'd stick them on in one lot and see how they go. (Unless another 7 days of them is going to do your head in! - if so, you could stick them on a Buy It Now).

    These are all immaculate.. not bad considering they've gone through at least 5 children!!!

    I have about 400 bibs, 300 bodysuits and 3 snowsuits to get rid of too.. before I even start on dresses!!!
