    110 - book: read - given to a friend
    111 - book: read - CS
    112-114 - manky old drinks bottles found at back of kitchen cupboard - recycled
    115 - at least 15 pairs of socks and tights that DS will be taking back to uni with her. Space reclaimed in the utility room!

    Still focussing on downsizing my book stash (not that you'd notice) and reducing my craft supplies, also decluttering other items as I come across them. Definitely want to continue and improve in the new year.

  • 116 - Another book finished - CS. Love the festive opportunity for some uninterrupted reading! Mount Bookmore is gradually starting to shrink!


    Now my daughter has gone back to uni, I think I'm going to crack on with the spare room. I've been keeping some board games with the idea that we will play them from time to time. Realised now that it's probably not going to happen, so I think I'll be passing some on to the CS.


    Is anywhere using old VHS tapes now in a productive way, seeing as CSs don't want them? It just feels so wrong putting them into landfill.

    I think I'm about to declare for the year....

    2271 manky old cool bag that has been in the attic ......
    2272 beads binned. Tatty, not worth using
    2273 hand cream, forgot about it, all dried out!
    2274 fabric scraps
    2275 load of ribbony bits & cords & abandoned drawstring type things
    2276, 2277 two cardigans
    2278 comb
    2279, 2280 two bottles of perfume. My stash exceeds my life expectancy and these two bring me no joy...
    2281 moisturiser UU
    2282 bubble bath UU
    2283 -2286 four books
    2287, 2288 two CDs
    2289 old laundry bag
    2290 lacey trimming stuff
    2291 carafe & glass set
    2292 sew on patch
    2293 -2301 nine tops


    And so I declare at 2301 ... Weighed in, ladies and gentlemen, weighed in.

    Looking forward to a new thread...2016 in 2016. My circumstances have changed a lot since I joined this challenge so I don't know how far I will get next year, I'll give it a bash though!
