2017 - No Clutter To Be Seen

sillyme673

Two big bags to Charity Shop. Finally put big bag of odd socks in bin:rotfl:
Put some craft supplies in bin. Went through loads of pens , most didn't work, why I keep them I'll never know. So now have two nice pots of working pens( result).:)

Again, I feel like it's been ages since I've been here...

1099. T-shirt
1100.-1104 Toys
1105.- 1106 toiletries
1107- 1112 Baby clothes
1113.-1125 Books
1126. Photo frame
1127. towel
1128. -1132 candles

The majority of the books and all of the baby clothes were sold, but the clothes have been replaced with others a size up. I think I said this last time but I do feel like a lot is coming in at the moment, so visually it's not looking like much progress is being made. I think I need to really up my game, as yet again I'm feeling like it's all overwhelming and suffocating me!! x

I know we're more than half way through 2017 but I have a house of clutter

The whole house needs a good going over as there are things in every available space but for now, my bedroom is going to be redecorated so some things were put aside in the charity bags yesterday:

2 x duvet covers
Lamp
CD radio
Shelves
Carrier bag of clothing
Cup
Flower vase
5 x DVDs
Ornament
2 x me to you teddies
Magnets
Christmas tree lights

It will probably take at least a week to go through everything but already, it looks less cluttered

I'm going to jump on board as a late starter, I'm part way through Konmarie, I flylady here and there and I still live in a hovel. Reason being I just never seem to get finished or more stuff comes in that out. So what's one more thing to the list of things to do.
2017 things out!

383/388) bottles of Lucozade - gave to DS - he has type one diabetes and Lucozade was the best hypo treatment, until they halved the sugar content. I'd been stocking up when I'd seen the older higher sugar variety. I've still got a couple of bottles for when he visits.

389) poster - in recycling bin

390) hat
391) belt
392) nightie
393) jeans
394/395) socks
396/397) t shirts

Some of the above belonged to DS. All went in the Shwop bin in M and S and I got 50 Sparks points :T

398) hand cream sachet - used up.

Nothing to report. I feel like I've totally lost my mojo over the last couple of days. DS is on holiday and I found out on Friday that he'd been mugged and had his phone and cash stolen I've found it hard to concentrate on anything since then.

I have got a bag and a box on the go for the cs so hopefully things will start moving again next week. DS doesn't get back until Friday.

399) chipped casserole dish - binned

Thanks for the good wishes re DS. Counting the days until he comes home now, partly because of having to clean up hedgehog poo - he even does it in his food :eek:

Mine and my partners entire lives are basically in boxes and bags right now!

And about 5% of it as at our new flat :rotfl:

I know our official move in date was the 11th, but that was more like the tenancy commencement date. We are going to move in slowly between now and the beginning of September when we will both have more money to do a food shop etc.

While packing I have been looking at each item to decide if I really need it or not and managed to get rid of some stuff

Our big items are being moved on Saturday as that is the only time anyone is really available at the same time that I am also not working. Me being the way I am, I don't trust anyone else with manoeuvring my stuff - something will be sure to go missing or get damaged/broken :rotfl:

Then for 2 weeks we will live very liberally but from what we have here. I still have a boat load of toiletries to use up and there are some food items that only dad and I eat, but each container is too much for dad alone
