    246. Bins and recycling emptied and put out for collection.

    247. I saw a pyrex dish that I bought because I "needed" one which still hasn't been used so I just cleaned out the fridge and will make a vegetable and potato bake with all the leftover veggies and do a creamy garlic sauce over the top.

    I am being very strict with myself and using everything I own or it's out!:D I'm wearing a dress that I couldn't fit into last year at the moment. :cool: It's a summer one but I'm wearing it with a cardi and tights.

    248. I'm about to cut up an old hand towel to make rags for cleaning floors.

    Everyone is doing so well.:A

    249. A lot more packaging into recycling as the groceries arrived and my DH likes his frozen pizza.

    250. End of a handwash used up.

    Decluttering 2015: 2162/2015
  • Morning all


    Have not done that much in the decluttering department lately, i seem to have reached a stalemate.


    I have 2 iphone 5 cases and a sky hd box listed on freecycle. no takers for the cases so may just CS them.


    The sky hd box people are driving me mad. Have had a few expressions of interest, one person never showed up then i offered it to someone else and he never showed up last night either. Am getting really hacked off now :mad: why do these people even bother to message you when they are obviously time wasters.

    Blimey,it's like shovelling snow in a blizzard,decluttering with the kids around :eek:.
    This morning I have been trying to photograph a few items to list for sale.Some of this meant literally digging stuff out of the loft.I have photographed a few things,most of the photos are blurry on my phone,I am trying to list things.Meanwhile I've got 2 kids demanding to make bread,another 2 demanding I help them with their game and go for a walk somewhere.

    I do love having them home,but just at the moment I wish I had whole days to just get on with the decluttering.Every room in the house is a mess,everywhere I turn kids games are making even more mess.The third bedroom cannot be painted until it is emptied of furniture (mentioned the other day) and toys.Don't know whatever made me think I was going to have 3 bedrooms painted and moved into by the time school went back on 6th January.I guess I didn't think the decluttering would take so long.I thought the kids would be excited enough about getting new rooms for the first time in their lives to want to get it all organised quickly.Apparently not icon_rolleyes.gif.
