This is me doing my star dance
🤸🤸 💃💃💃🕺⭐
Thank you @Mrs_Salad_Dodger
Took the parcels a day early hurrah.

Did a minimal shop late afternoon as watching the pennies no real bargains, got what I needed from list. 

Threw away some bath soap foam in a can (?) ish as wouldn't come out.. It was doughnut scented. Not sure which fool (plus one or I) brought that. 

Found some cheap wipe alternatives for my speed mop so pleased with those. 
General rubbish and recycling out. 
Added a few more  bits on ebay but losing the will with that.

Will try a bag declutter tomorrow to go room by room.

Did a tiny bit more. Walked across my room, checked which triffids were most in need of rehoming, then brought the tin (old battered, rusty) back with me and counted how many veg labelling sticks I had that could be used.

bit_by_bit  glad you're getting to retire, one of my friends retired a couple of years ago , although she's back 2 days a week but so happy.
498 paper declutter 
499 item back to shop
500 washed floors and tidied hall, feels much better and debris binned
501 -502 pleased with myself, bought some shelving from charity shop months ago but haven't worked there but put in the kitchen and looks good with pots, and casserole dishes, and will try and sell the butchers trolley which has never really worked and reminds me of ex  , also found string and attached to dustpan and brush so they can hang up which is less clutter on the floor.
Also tidied bedroom and hoovered which makes me feel much calmer.

Decluttered loads of paperwork today, plus I've killed my shredder while doing it. Need to declutter that now.

I have loads more to do, so I need to buy another one. Can anyone on here recommend a good one?

Frogletina - I bought the R*x*l small one last year - takes 7 sheets and 12L bin.  It was about £40 - I have been really pleased with it as bin slides out and is really easy to empty.  Much better than the bigger one where I had to lift top off and turn upside down.  Perfectly good for home use and occasional shredding blitz.
Just a few to add to list;
497 Meeting papers from last night's zoom meeting - I have them on computer but find it easier to print out for meeting discussion. 
498 - Nomination form scanned and emailed off
499 - Bath bomb bag (complete with pretend straw filling!) binned - 2 left are in bathroom cupboard in case older GDs want them
500 - 2 letters out to post when I go out
GS4 this weekend so I doubt much will be done.

@Marpau - fab window washing. 
Woke too early but had abit of a revelation. following repurposing shelves in kitchen I'm  going to reorganise cupboards and shelves. Have top shelves which have old cardboard boxes (with crockery and glasses), and decided will find better storage boxes and put smaller boxes of sentimental cards memometoes which are currently under chest of drawers or other places - I am no where near ready to sort these but don't need them lying around. Also happy for one of the many open shelves to have boxes of cereal etc as look ok, and generally making it more how I like it  503 made a start, empty box recycled, and pasta etc put in jars and packaging out.
Same will happen in bedroom over time.

Managed to achieve some more this week.
I also have a small pile for each son when they come to collect stuff.

359 a hat in clothes bank. Put it in when I went shopping.
360-361 rags binned that had more holes in than material.
362-364 catalogues and magazines recycled.
365 a random napkin went to the clothes bank too.
Aiming to do some more today.

Thank you Granny Kate, I shall take a look at that today. Mine was a very simple one, and was one where I had to take the top off every time.

Paper was always getting caught and I unscrewed the top off at least 3 times yesterday to free the trapped paper.

Have now got 12 items on ebay with 1 sold this morning. May try to get some more on later today.

Quick sausage roll for brunch and will go and post the Parcel. 

Plan to try and go through the bathroom, spare room and bedroom for hidden clutter this afternoon. 
On a progressive move, I have taken 2 pictures of sentimental items and plan to list them for sale as they take up a small suitcase of room under the bed. Hopefully they sell. 

Back later to report on actual progress rather than might do  😂
