    Good morning everyone :wave:

    May I join in please ?

    My house is rather cluttered, not messy as everything does have a home/place but just cluttered. I have had a good read of this thread for ideas and how to keep totals etc. and started de-cluttering the other day in preparation of posting on this thread.

    My first lot of clutter leaving the house is:~
    1 pack of new Schweppes glasses to CS
    1 pack of new table mats to CS
    1 candle holder to neighbour or CS (neighbour)
    1 shawl to neighbour or CS (neighbour)
    1 white long sleeve t shirt to clothing bank
    1 pyjama bottoms to clothing bank
    10 x Bundles of new and used cotton reels to go on eBay (done)

  • Morning.
    I haven't got an official inventory of what I've gotten did of but I have gotten did of;

    A wooden desk tidy - we currently have a mould problem in the bedroom window and this got mouldy

    A mouldy cup that was left in the window from the Mr doing warhammer painting

    A spoon that was in the cup I obviously went to take both down and forgot about it

    Loads of paper, a diary for my blog, a lined paper pad, a Ds portable game case, hand cream set that was given to me for Christmas...I can't use as sensitive skin and no one else wants it (not worth anything was only £1) and a dressing gown in a charity clothes bag .

    Am planning to do more later.

    3/52 - a file returned to it's proper home and off the kitchen counter (and a pile of paper lying on top recycled)

    Who knew looking at empty space was so satisfying! :D

    408 old counters in bin

    Looking forward to 5 auctions ending tonight, all with bids on!

    And they've gone out of the door, so that's now 413.

    One item up for auction ending tomorrow, and a few things to freegle out of the door.

    Getting there slowly. But it was my birthday on Friday, so I'm not going to beat myself up on my birthday weekend! Thursday is a fairly free day, so hopefully get lots of stuff sorted then.
