Just finished the last photograph and all the letters so now got a pile of paper to be burnt. :j

Cleared out the stuff lying on the sofa. :j

Two more of the huge black bin bags to go to the dump. :j

Only got one more kitchen cupboard and the three drawers of the desk to deal with. :j

Had a late night last night with an unexpected amount of :beer: so heading for bed now to catch up. :j

I managed to take about half the books to the c/s yesterday in my shopping trolley.I'll take what's left today I think.

I also have two videos,a piggy bank and a Rubik's cube to give away.

I'm sure I'll find more today,as I need to spend some time re-arranging my books.

Hopefully I'll post later with more decluttered items.:)

Does silent sister still post here?She used to post a lot.

Firstly a big wow :T for all the decluttering everyone is doing. You're a very inspiring bunch :T

I'm going to declutter the hall/stairs/landing today. It hasn't been hoovered either for far too long

I found this lady on YouTube. Her declutter videos are funny and useful. Anything that helps us get started. Even if for just 5 minutes during an ad break we tidy/ organize/ declutter one area.

A big revelation for me is that stuff I find it difficult to find a home for is often the stuff I need to declutter.

I was at least able to read the magazines in the sun. :cool:

Should be up to around 96 things. So need to get back on target. It's easy for me to fall behind. My driver for all of this is less stuff means less stuff to tidy. My removing this layer of unwanted stuff to the tune of 500 things will mean the house is easier to keep clean and tidy.

Marmite - what about doing something for 5 minutes during a tv ad. Nothing major. Just a surface, drawer, your bag, your car, anything :A
