2014 decluttering thread (part 3)

Not much decluttering done at home today but lots at my job. Last day in the office as shop closing and I got rid of loads of paperwork and carp. Lots still to sort out but sent that to boss's house as that's where I will go for next few weeks. Uncluttered the ironing pile before work and baked muffins whilst doing tea, so not entirely wasted day. Decluttered dirt from kids too, does that count!!!!! Lol. Plan for tomorrow is to tackle pile 1 of paperwork but not sure what I will get done as training at work til 5.30 so late home tomorrow. Have a good day tomorrow one and all xx

73. Slippers with holes -bin
74. Jeans ripped -bin
75. Various unknown items lurking in the freezer

Decided to do an inventory of my freezers and gosh was I surprised. Lots if meats, some I have no idea about but hey! Threw away some mystery packets that had freezer burn and looked most odd:o but found lots if goodies. I have enough cheese to see us through the summer, what was I thinking......
76. Book -given away

Still buying stock, but trying to sort as we go along and not leave boxes lying round 'to be sorted'


Listed some old stock yesterday and had a buyer contact me about buying more, so might be able to shift a bit more soon.


Gorgeous day here yesterday, and looking like another good one today, so washer's on, will change the bed later as I love sheets dried outside. It's amazing how much better we feel when the sun shines.


Happy decluttering x

had a reasonably productive few days
old garage roof has been decluttered and a nice new non leaky one put in its place
old rotted garage window has been taken out and old upvc one we saved from when bedrooms were redone has been put in its place so looks much better
landrover full of rubbish from garage has been taken to the tip from when we cleared the garage out
large piece of fabric from my stash has been turned into 3 chair back covers for my friends hairdresser shop also used a piece of old sheeeting to make a trial pattern so a couple of bits of fabric decluttered.

everyone is doing so well its really inspiring and spurred me on reading what you are all up to

I have got one bag of old clothes/ bedding for the textile recycling.

I also binned some old makeup I had lurking in my chest of drawers. It was really old!:p

I am chucking out the household recycling and recycled the end of the tomato ketchup bottle by adding water and shaking and putting it into my bean chilli.:T

6 bags and boxes decluttered yesterday thanks to the local carboot sale out of 5 bags and 3 boxes that's all i came back with, even gave two of the plastic boxes i had to the guy who had a regular stall which he was very happy about. Made a bit of money and got rid of more clutter, bonus! My new fence is arriving Wednesday so i popped my old one on Freecycle, amongst the 10 panels there can be a good few really good panels made up. Someone coming to get that later this week. And a friend coming to take some paving slabs from my garden with her hubby so i can get cracked on with the garden work. Theres about 60 slabs so i have a feeling they will be here a while with their little car!! I have a plan for decluttering some of our 'quick grab pizzas' from the freezer to give to them!

hope everyone has a good day!!

Now thats a nifty idea! I'm a fa of the stupidly cheap ketchups the ones in glass bottles that you can never get the last bit out of :@ ! You know what I'll be doing now

Few ebay sales but not much happened here on the declutter front. My room is tidy though which is an achievement and a half

Didn't get my paperwork DONE as training at school was very mind numbing that I couldn't face it. I did however sort the rest of my kitchen cupboards so bathroom and kitchen done, which I'm very pleased about. Paperwork tomorrow while dd 2 is at cubs and maybe Hoover upstairs. DONE a load of washing as well tonight. Off to bed now nite nite peeps xxx
