2015 - No Clutter To Be Seen
Comments

            May I join too?
 Today, I decluttered a tall and teetering tower of flower pots to school, to be used in their gardening club.
 I also decluttered a bottle of wine and a bag of crisps with a friend, but that doesn't count... ;-)"Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful." William Morris0

            Morning All
 Not posted for ages. Got a day off work today, I am too many hours up, so need to declutter some. Work will still be on my desk when I get back, but nice only having to get DS and DD done and out of the house this morning and not me too.
 Having an hour to myself and a few cuppas, then getting on with it all. Picking up DS at midday, he is having two baby teeth removed which aren't showing any signs of shifting and are preventing a brace being fitted. Be glad when that's done. Will be doing an Oscar winning performance of a calm and unworried Mum!
 I found a box full of old used cheque books. Go back to 2001. So been shredding those to go. A bit more space as a result. I really need to declutter some dust and from this house!

 Storing pushchair and carrycot for sister who couldn't get it home on the train, so will try and take it up to her next month when going on holiday.
 Still trying to get rid of the display cabinet, (other) sister may be interested as she is moving to a bigger house in the next couple of weeks, will leave it a few days and then see if she definitely wants it.0
