boultdj

Yes he did Mrs SD, just e-mails yesterday, 103 of 'em decluttered and 2 unsubscribed from.
Bonus e-mail, I was lucky to get £5 in the paypal give away, so I thanked the universe for such a blessing.
Watching a film and got half a glove finished before furry owner wanted a fuss, will try and get it finished today and that is an unfinished craft project decluttered as well as a ball of wool.

 I found a strip of a sheet that once belonged to my Aunty.  A woman that I loved beyond words.  She grew up very poor so she used to save, mend, treasure everything.  She was a seamstress and I used to watch her bent over the machine mending.  She left behind lots of scraps of material and I took that one.  Perhaps some of you will understand why I can't let it go.

WHy don't you cut out a representative size piece of pattern and frame it? You get to keep it, it looks nice on the wall, it reminds you of your aunty, job done...

I'm another short-sharp-burst person - I can do a lot in my lunch break from my spare room desk, and have been known to sort/file paperwork at my desk while listening to a call

Good Morning all.
I am still trying to reach 2020's goal of 365 items out. Took the sitting room Christmas tree down yesterday and sold it on FB,also sold lights that I don't even remember buying. Kerching £40. 362 items gone this year.
The washing machine was very late to arrive last night because of the snow. The under sink cupboard had to be emptied to connect the new washer.All still on the worktop.I will wash the cupboard down and have a sort out before it goes back.
First we are going into work to have a tidy up and to be honest a walk. We work at a tourist attraction and it's a nice walk from the car park.
The kitchen Christmas decorations still need to be taken down and put away.Then cleaning the whole house.The bit I don't like!
Good idea taff.Bala my thoughts too.Make the sheet into something,cushion cover,framed etc

Hi all, inspiring stuff on here.
Just decluttered Mrs M's gym membership. she doesn't use it anymore and it was £30+/month so a definite win!
Need to gird up the loins and get started on the rest now.

And today's out is a ripped quilt cover, a ripped jumper form OH and a used up wash liquid bottle. Oh and the cards are in the recycling.
Hoovered most of the house, just the bedrooms left to do but OH has gone to bed with a headache.
Bonus for today, I've found my jumper that I've been looking for the last 2 weeks, in OH's wardrobe under 1 of his coats, it's now on my back keeping me warm.

Before and after of today's decluttering. Two bin bags as well as lots of cardboard recycling. 
The desk has now also sold and is being picked up soon.
I'll count it as three as the cardboard recycling was only 1/2 a bags worth. Two bin bags and the desk. That's my total to 8. X

Today I reached my target of 2020 so will start on 2021 for 2021.
2020 was helped by both sons buying new flats/houses and moving out so may be more difficult this year but will try and reach my target.
I find its best to do little and often and on some days I do loads if am in the right mood.
I knocked over a small tree today with glass ornament on it so unfortunately
1-5 broken glass Christmas ornaments.
