  • Thanks for the welcome back mineallmine. Have had a long day/days(?) travelling, nearly 36 hours without a sleep!! Once we got home I unpacked one bag but I'm too tired to do any more, just need to get to bed!

    I did remember a few more things that I'd left behind on holiday though:

    14. Old tatty bra
    15. Another top
    16. Another pair of shorts
    17. A travel size bar of soap
    18. A travel size hand lotion

    And once we got home:

    19. 3 weeks' worth of junk mail.

    I'm going to attempt unpacking tomorrow and will sort out as I do it. I'm sure I can find a few things that I brought home that I don't really need here.

    Going to bed now, night night all.

    Just do only a little bit at a time. Perhaps go through things sitting down or just try and do one small area during the tv ad breaks.
    Every little declutter helps

    Wow you're going great guns. I culled quite a few books last year but I'm still holding onto some unread ones at the moment :o
    I bet your food cupboard looks much better :T

    Not much decluttering today yet. Felt a bit tired. But did manage:-
    48. Make up (sealed) unused for a friend
    49. Photo frame which hubby took an instant dislike too. And I must admit it looks a little tacky so it's off to charity.

    Right I have an appointment with the Pyrex cupboard now! :j
