Don't be so hard on yourself jwil. You are a total superstar! No one let's you know how hard two is and you're still keeping up with decluttering!
Is there any chance you can start to reclaim rooms so there's only clutter in some rooms? Take back your bedrooms and the kitchen? Then you'll get to a point there's only one room left with clutter in. It's important to get to feel the difference you've made too. XxxLoan 1 £5200/£8000

Thank you
Sadly we are nowhere near anywhere being cleared.The kitchen is closest, but that's really badly designed too, so it looks a state really quickly.
I'd love for the living room to be cleared the most, then we'd have one space that wouldn't be too bad (and is where other people see).
We'll get there I'm sure."Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
