2016 - No Clutter To Be Seen

embb

Hiya

Id already decided to get rid of 10 things per day for the entire month but think this will help keep me focussed especially once I return to work and the inevitable cba hits....ill list what ive already chucked/recycled etc....

Day 1. 10 broken DVDs
Day 2. 10 bits of gibble from the messy drawer (1000 to go haha)
Day 3. 10 magazines recycled

Im also doing spot decluttering that I probs wont count cos I do like a chuck out sesh, todays area is under the kitchen table shelf (glass table with shelf underneath so can see the junk)

Ebay Turbo Lister -

Just in case this helps anyone. I had huge problems installing this, Ebay told me that it was not compatible with Windows 10 but plenty of people seemed to be able to use it just fine. So I did a bit more digging and a single Windows update causes the problems. If you have problems, uninstall windows update KB3132372 and it will work fine.

Bit late for today for me, but comforting to know I can still use this to list things as I find them then start the auctions when I like!

Morning All

In cleaning DS and DD bedrooms yesterday, two 2015 calendars have left the house, together with two feet warmer cushion things that were past their best and annoyingly big. Also, some broken earphones and a broken pen. There's not much to declutter in those rooms as both were decorated last year and nothing went back in afterwards without a decision as to whether it was wanted or needed, also many larger toys and games went then as both past that stage now. Their rooms are so much easier to clean now.

I have also transferred info from my old 2015 calendar to my new 2016 and the old one has been flung, together with a shortbread tin I have emptied over the festive period!

I was lucky that most presents I received for Christmas were wanted or useful, I have been ruthless with the few bits I know I won't use or don't like and they have already found their way to the CS. I'm not faced with the annual toy shuffle with the kids' stuff anymore, they get a lot less bulk wise, although probably just as expensive an event!

Hoping to get around to packing away Christmas decs today, there won't be much decluttered there as lots went after Christmas last year, but you never know! Christmas cards will definitely be out once I have made gift tags for next year from them.

Yesterday I carried on with the declutter. I sorted my fabric stash and managed to condense two huge bags into one medium one. I'm a bit of a so-and-so for making a garment and keeping the tiniest scraps *just in case*... I now only have fabric that I will actually use and have a list of things I want to make for the summer

I also sorted my wool stash and found about 6 balls of white wool (all slightly different) that I have no idea how they got here... but I have decided to finally learn how to make socks... I should get enough pairs from that to last me ages (plus I am hoping that nice thick HM socks will be harder to lose ). Listed myself a couple of other projects for the rest to hopefully make use of it... I'm giving myself three months and if stuff isn't getting made I will probably CS it.

I'm going to start looking at my clothes today... I have loads that don't fit and loads that need mending. Time to get rid of those that are beyond repair or that are never worn and fix the rest!

It's another good day for chucking stuff out today pouring down here so I am continuing my quest...
