Lots of good sorting this morning with Sonia's help. 3 more shelves put into the book cases so 1 shelf of DVD's; 1 shelf of books; 1 shelf still empty and there is space for a few more shelves. Sonia also started on working out my 'new' phone - I've had it 2 years and have never had the brain power to try and tackle getting everything swapped over and working out how to use it.

Items removed
1 jam jar lid (don't know where the jar is) into the recycling tub (RT)
1 old broken eye mask into the rubbish bin (RB)
1 pen - too old to work RB
2 old worn out nail files into the RB
78 bits of used paper; used envelopes and receipts (1 counted these as they were in bags and boxes that had been there for years)
5 empty metal tea light trays (RT)
4 broken hair bands RB
1 party popper (I popped it first) RB
1 pen lid (to pen thrown away the other day) RB
1 reed diffuser (glass bottle part RT) rest RB
1 trolley token given to Sonia
1 empty plastic bottle RT
25 items of rubbish (wrappers; bits of plastic; etc) RB (1 counted these as they were in bags and boxes that had been there for years)

Another bag of books gone - 15/52

I have slowed down a bit this week, been out a lot, at work or trying to sleep. Starting work clearing the bookshelves in our dining room as we will have to use the space as a temporary kitchen later in the year while we rip ours out and start again. This kitchen is a big job as we are moving a patio door and building a downstairs loo. DH has been holding back because of the clutter but has now agreed seeing as I have go rid of so much other stuff. Well worth the effort just for that.
