Well I have decluttered my desk at work today!!! Got a huge pile of old papers shredded!
Got all the numbers/contacts transferred from last years diary to this years, and last years is now archived
So my handbag is now a diary lighter!! I do need to declutter that sometime! I weighed it a while back and its 5kg
I do say to people no chance of me getting mugged!! they wouldnt be able to run very fast carrying it :rotfl:
A friend was here for a couple of days and she went home with a huge box of crafty stuff and some knitting books and other bit n bobs.
I also have a tidy craft cupboard and its shocking..lol I keep going to look to see if its real!
Am off on thursday and the garden room is in for a shock!! I am going to give it a go, and I have also seen an idea to revamp my 3 Lloyd loom chairs that are sat there looking a bit sad. I am thinking of painting them to match my room and my girls rooms and cover the cushions to match as well

3) student docs to shredder

5) empty flapjack pot to bin which means i must have finished them :eek:
6) knickers too small for me too large for dd to bin
7) empty folders will go to work tomoz (innards in rc)
8) text book to school
9) omg another textbook to return to the school (that makes 9!)
