Oh, I missed this. A spare clothes rail is brilliant if you're trying to sort your wardrobe into fits/doesn't fit or "Ah, as I suspected: 80% of my clothes are black" :rotfl:

Also useful for sorting and storing lengths of fabric. G'wan, ask me how I know this:D

Hehe....come on then....how do you know this.?? we all need to know now.

:hello: Hi x I'm lurking :cool: Not much action here though - reasons/excuses being : shoulder impingement syndrome + toooo hot + black dog visiting + been told no budget to keep me at work = anxiety levels through the roof. Result is the house looks worse than ever as I haven't even been doing the things I was doing that were slowly helping turn the house into a home

Need to give myself a kick up the proverbial. Fling a fluffy mule please pigpen .... preferably one coated in mojo

Well done to everyone who has carried on the crusade despite the temperatures :T

More clothes and a weekend bag with matching small toiletry bag off to the Charity Shop today

Dah-Dah da DAH! (hums the tune to The Stripper, peels off her holey black socks seductively * and hurls them into the waste bin).

Noticed earlier today that said socks were more holy than righteous, so decided they'd go in the bin not the washer. Worn very thin overall, see-through at toes and heels, so not a darnable issue.

Today, I went un-shopping, in that I left home with two carrier bags and dropped one at the c.s., and deposited an ink cartridge at another c.s. then the fruit punnets back at the Magic Greengrocer, so was shopping in reverse.

I came back with 5 litres of UHT milk and some paintbrushes, lol. Brushes are in the lottie shed awaiting use to treat the wood. Errmm, but not with the UHT, I was planning on creosote.:rotfl:

The c.s. bag contained TFP. Strange, but I swithered about this for yonks and managed not to feel a pang when it actually went. Sometimes I think I make heavy weather of things.

(((((roundtuit))))))) take it easy on yourself, hun. I always say that life isn't a race. If it was, someone sensible would be in charge, have laid out the course, given us proper numbers and told us when and where to turn up.

As it is, we're just a buncha human beans muddlin' along as best we may, and on some days, getting thru the daylight hours without crying/ throwing something or eating twice our own bodyweight in chocolate is the best we can do.

Hokay, time to put this ole pooter to bed. I've be re-watching The Matrix on DVD. Hooboy, but was the young Keanu a hottie......:rotfl:

* attach snort of self-mockery here to get the true effect.

Took the bags to the tip and some of stuff to mums garage.

I made great head way with the front room. Now what to do with old tv unit.. eBay or just take tip? There is life in it just want room clear NOW while I'm in the mood!

Defrosted fridge freezer yesterday so need to restock it. Have a list of things to pick up as well so I can do them jobs that you just put on one side for later.

This is how I feel sometimes then I think about how much stuff has gone to the charity shop and been put outside for folks to take. Main thing is - keep getting rid and don't bring more stuff in to the house.

It's nice to see people making progress - I'm not jealous at all......:p

At the rate I'm going, I'm going to declutter a sewing project about once a month.

This poppy is mainly pink. Very dark red, dark red, red (which looks like dark red), light red, dark pink (which looks like light red) and pink (which looks like dark pink which could be light red in the wrong light) - seriously, this red poppy is mainly pink.

AAARRRGH! :mad:

That'll teach me.

Next time, I'm buying black and white.
