Never_too_old... Yes have the problem with Tupperware - abit like the odd sock monster!
Managed to throw out 2 old make up sponges, 2 dental paste etc, 2 bin of rubbish and bits tidied up in DD2 room- she's on crutches so given up asking her to do it. Also put cushions and clean cushion covers together ( been in a pile for a long time.) Will add up later and think with dd2 doing no sport may be declutter weekend although bitesize - thinking if I keep going at this pace then spring cleaning will be done in the spring !11 -
Hello fellow declutterers.I have been MIA lately, RL getting in the way again.Today to the cs bag a new coconut scented candle, don't know why I bought it really as I don't like the scent. To the bin some 2 years OOD bread flour ( must have slipped through the net
). Ready to go to recycling next week, a black bag of shredded paper, although there is still another lot of paperwork that needs doing too. I hope to get that done this week / weekend.
Recluttered double dose of meds. I was already away with the fairies, but now I'm in Zombie mode. At present I could be an extra on the Walking Dead ...........and not on the human side !
Keep up the good work allnan

No Mrs SD as some of the VHS tapes were film recordings off the TV from years ago so not much use in keeping them now, no point in buying a DVD either as not bothered about the film anymore. The proper VHS tapes are again not my favourites anymore or old so buying DVDs only clutter up the house again120 - 122 A few boxes put into the recycle bin as no longer storing them

- 1 top listed on ebay
- 3 t shirts to CS bag
- 3 pairs of football socks to CS bag
- 1 pair of shorts to CS bag
Keep up the great work everyone. We will reclaim our homes!MFW: Was: £136,000.......Now: £47,736.58......11 -
