  • Morning All,

    Final day of September and the sun is still shining. Ive been AWOL from this thread for far too long (sorry)

    Im wonderding if anyone is setting up any 31-day decluttering threads for October, as a sort of extra boost before the Xmas shopping rush?

    Anyhow, off to do a bit of laundry before heading off to work this evening, hugs and best wishes to all

    LG

    Morning all

    Lovely and sunny here. Towels just finished in the wm and whites about to go in next.

    Plan is to sort and label DS3's stuff for his trip and some bits in the garden.

    Good morning Ladies,

    Hope your all well. Think I will spend today slumping around in my pjs to be honest but thought Id come on and have a look at my list.

    Ive kept up to date with the dishes and Laundry, but the beds could do with stripping and the bathroom hasnt been cleaned properly...

    LOs room could also do with a deflea...

    Morning all. Both lines full and more waiting to go out and still more (last lot, actually) in the WM.
    Have put my glasses down. Dunno where and the house isn't even that messy (ie they're not 'in a pile')
    Need to go to PO and get car tax. Need to find glasses to read form to see what I need to take with me to go get car tax.

    All cardboard brought home for school project (needed cutting to size) which I didn't use because I got 'nicer' cardboard from Mr T. now stacked into one box next to blue bin to go to be recycled Thursday. Kitchen looks beter already!
