    Oooo I really need to do some de-cluttering again. I start off well and then it slops off and then I end up with a spare room full of rubbish:mad:
    I have a pile of items from when I did a big sort that need taking to tip/CS/selling. Couple of weeks ago I did go through all our magazines and recycle quite a few old ones. Both mine and OH's wardrobes need sorting through before winter officially sets in. Next week I have a full day off work and apart from a hair appointment I think it will need to be de-cluttering day!
    Christmas is the most magical time of the year :santa2:

  • I didn't really manage anything yesterday.

    Today will mainly be doing the washing,getting the hoover out and tidying bits of paper clutter round my desk.

    We may be moving house next year so I really need to declutter anything I'm not willing to box up and move with us.

    I'm going upstairs to check through the pet stuff in a minute and also collect some knick knacks and other stuff to be donated to a CS.

    Recycling has been emptied this morning and a few old pens thrown away.

    I am slowly working through all my toiletries. I'm actually remembering to put hand lotion on before bed every night.:)
