Decluttering 2013, the saga continues ...

mrs-moneypenny

tidied and decluttered spare room moved a bookcase so have culled some books and revision guides
found a couple of mugs that started off as ornaments but are now just filled with dust and grot so it looks like they've been abandoned so they are being washed and put in the CS box.
some really tatty books that are falling apart so they are going in the recycling bag

taken results of decluttering pantry to recycling centre, went through dd's drawers and took 1 bin-bag full of clothes out that have also gone to recycling/cs, went through shoe cupboard and have a small bag of shoes and a handbag gone to cs too.

under the stairs is now much tidier, although I hate the shoe cupboard under there, if I can get rid of a few more pairs of shoes, I should be able to freecycle it and look for a storage seat to go in there.

Just popping in to let you know that I got the job that I had an interview for today. Feeling really pleased.

Decluttering of kitchen going well .... Have got more cupboard space for food now! Sorted wardrobe for next seasons p333.... Made a list of every item ... Need to purchase new jeans , 1 skirt and 1 dress. Not bad considering I thought I needed a good few items of post maternity clothes! Going to take my used maternity wear to baby consignment shop this will hopefully pay for my new items. Have already sold one item that's £9 into the pot! As we lose the clutter I'm really starting to like my house again!!! It's nice to walk into a room and see space and clear tabletops! Wish the weather would pick up have my eye on the garden shed!

Evening All

Made a good start with my bedroom, couple of bags from clutter pile for either CS or binned and half way around with hoover/dusting. Stopped for DS and DD bedtime and my supper (chicken curry using leftover roast chicken) and now can't seem to get going again .

Car service and MOT less than thought, £130 in total, passed with flying colours, hurray!

Going to try and do bit more in a minute, plus stuff ready for tomorrow so less rushed in the morning (not my best time of day). Bath and bed soon though as work tomorrow.

Well done Becky 2 on your new job .

Night to all, sleep tight x

Hi Everyone,

There's nothing like a text from your LL to say someone is coming to view the flat on Wednesday to get your @ss into gear.

Filed some paperwork, recycled envelopes and some junk mail.
2 tin openers in the bin - one just broke and the other is neither use nor ornament. Good job I got a new one for my birthday last month.

Cleaned kitchen and bathroom (will do floors tomorrow as it's too late now).

Changed bedding (just need to remember to switch washing machine on in the morning - I live in an upstairs flat and can't do laundry at this time of night as the machine is too old and noisy).

Got a bit more tidying to do tomorrow as well as putting clean clothes away. Should then look halfway decent for the viewing.

I noticed my little girls 'birthday card' collection was getting a little bit at only the age off 3, so i made a scrapebook with then, ie age 1 cut out parts of the card with messages overlapping etc Lot less space taken up. With I will add to everyyear.

Also we made a folder with collage stuff for all her 'best art' everything else goes on fridge for a week then in the bim ;-)

I use the free photo books online offers as well (normally have to pay for postage) Pick the best photos for the year and name them (having fun before i'm one, things to do before i'm two, things to see before im three etc etc) Design them how you want really and really nice keepsakes but not hundreds of photo's.

I do like to keep things, but found im quite organised with sentimental things (shame about the rest of the house) We all have a memory box each as well and I check look through every few months when adding and and keep on top of them

Night everyone xx
