Bit of cashback in and we are up to £128.02. Had a bumper food order with checkout smart and have requested £9.90 which is yet to hit the account. Also waiting for another £3.26 TCB to credit.

Feeling colder outside, but been a busy few days so grateful for the chance to potter today and pick up a few surveys.

All sounding like great progress, dfod:)  'would I pay someone to move this for me is one of my mantras and has been for several years - for some reason the idea of paying someone to pack it and move it helps me with the deckuttering - I am way too tight to (theoretically!) spend money like that!

True greent. It does feel like we are being very ruthless for sure… but it also feels a relief to sort through all the ‘stuff’.

Up to £180.89 now. Looking to be a bumper month. Had some prolific surveys clear and also payment from checkoutsmart which has helped the total. 

All quiet on the house front still.  Assuming they are waiting for searches and contracts going back and forth… I guess with the chain being small and no mortgages involved, once searches and surveys are done, we are good to go. 

Must obtain some packing boxes!

Well it’s wet and dreary so that can only mean one thing. It’s tackle the loft weekend. I have no idea what is up there / how much is up there. This’ll be fun!

Well the loft wasn’t that bad. We emptied it all and out of 10 plastic storage boxes, 5 went back up empty. Only other things uk there are a Christmas tree and decorations which we will declutter this Christmas when we know what works and doesn’t work once we have moved. Suitcases are the other thing but they will wait until we actually start packing. 

DH has gone to the charity shop with 6 bags and to the tip with a boot full so a good mornings work. 

I have no energy left to tackle the airing cupboard though so that can wait till tomorrow along with the kitchen junk drawer. Once that is done, dare I say it, that is the house de cluttered apart from DHs wardrobe. That’s his job though!!

Well done DFOD, its a lovely to feeling to send it all to the CS.  When we moved about 15 years ago, it took forever to empty out the loft.  We'd made the mistake of boarding it out and putting a sturdy ladder up there so it was hoarder's paradise.  We've just got suitcases in our new loft, xmas decs are in the garage at the moment.

Not sure the airing cupboard will get done today. Have hardly moved this morning. Super tired.  Weather isn’t helping. It’s bucketing it down out there.
