November Challenge

Who's up for a month of decluttering, ebaying, donating and general making space (and hopefully some spare cash) before those presents arrive?

I'm in - I, PenPen, pledge to declutter the spare room and make it tidy and inviting for our guests in time for our 23 November party :beer:

pigpen

I hereby pledge to bin/fling/dispose or otherwise remove from the house 15 binbags (6 carriers = 1 binbag) of tut.. half a bag a day can't be hard! day to day rubbish and recycling does not count! I aim to make £200 on ebay too.. I have 48 items listed this evening and I have some perfume to go up too (ysatis and obsession) and some baby Christmas outfits!

1 carriers out
2 binbags of recycling.
3 binbags of rubbish
1 item sold

ebay total £10 (bids on 3 more items) 10% is being donated to JDRF funding research into T1 diabetes.

Thank you, yes we did enjoy it.:o They've left the ending ready for another sequel, methinks.;):D

Oh yes Did you get the trailer for the second part of The Hobbit? looked marvellous but I can't abide a cinema for 3 hours (bah, humbug!)

Not the most productive of days so far but I do improve later in the day. Well, I think I do :rotfl:

And here's a good 'un for the dog fans... http://cheezburger.com/7885921536

Well done to all of you who have made progress on the challenge. I haven't yet because I've been eating frogs but I will make some progress on the weekend.

Trying to get the house straight for a visit by an absent flylady tomorrow especially as I need to do some paid stuff in the morning.

Ah yes, I think I can safely say I shall be sat in the cinema for the prescribed 3 hours.... Mr LW deffo wants to see "The Desolation of Smaug" but he absolutely will not go without me. Daft man won't even go for a drink without me.:o Says he feels silly on his own.:o

I love the doggy link, btw.:rotfl:

Shredding continues apace (or as swiftly as the shredder will eat it) but it's not going to be finished today. Hopefully I can get it done before Bonnie Labrador arrives, 18:30 tomorrow evening.:o

Challenge: have removed and checked one bag of DVDs that can go, and sorted one bag of books. Partly still on LR floor till I decide what can go to work and what can go to hospice sale.

Play date in morning but will do more in afternoon.

Got a lovely joint of beef "thick rib" in Mr M earlier. It was so lean but tender and not dry. Cooked in one of those roasting bags. Even DS wanted second helpings and he's not the carnivore of the house...

Keep checking DD throat, voice sounds very "tonsilitissy"

mrs-moneypenny

aww hope its not tonsilitis Bossy - poor DD

pigpen

Bossy.. Dot sounded like that for 4 or 5 days but was absolutely fine.. we did have a quiet couple of days though
