    Woo hoo.:j:j:j

    I'm sitting in a beautiful clear and clean sitting room thanks to this thread. Also the top of the stairs is now clear with the CDs sorted onto it.

    Just the rest of the house to go now. Must keep reading to keep motivated, thanks.:T

    I also have a tidy craft cupboard and its shocking..lol I keep going to look to see if its real!
    LOL!!! I was like that when I first did my craft room.... it turned from a box room that was stuffed to the rafters with about a 6" clear space on the table, to a bedroom with single bed and chest of drawers! I had a ruthless sort out and have given away loads. I still have quite a lot but it's now contained in really useful boxes in a cupboard, plus a couple of Ikea single wardrobes.

    I forgot to post yesterday: haven't really decluttered much because house was tidied at the weekend for viewers and I don't like untidying it again by getting everything out!

    Still....

    160. Piece of fabric made into a draught excluder
    161. Fleece blanket used to stuff the draught excluder
    162. Junk mail

    Think I'll have an 'indoors' day today and see what else I can rootle out.
    Have a good day everyone xx

    WOW, that list was amazingly long Donna! I hope you feel better with your depression soon. I know how you feel. Exercise may help and ensure you keep yourself busy and see family and friends. xxxxx

    Craft and book room is looking tidier. Still room for improvement but at least can sit on the chair and use the desk. Decluttered:

    3 books
    Material (pretty but very silky so never found a use for it)
    10 balls of wool (going to ebay)
    2 magazines
    Packaging
    Torn purse
    2 notebooks (have too many but it's hard to part with them)
    Cross stitch embroidery frames
    Practice crochet squares
    Pretty papers (will give to my daughter as reward after we have tidied her room, expecting resistance but it really does need doing)

    thank you hannerrbabes - can't believe how much i have achieved in a short space on time in what is probably the lowest point of my life to date!

    Took DS to local farm this morning, lots of fresh air and very strong winds - hoping lots of cobwebs have been blown out of my head lol!

    Hi cte1111, well done on all your hard work, I also found 101 notebooks, pads etc, I have found keeping a notebook on me at all times really handy and amazing how quickly you use them up
