I've used the time when our CEO gives a staff briefing on Teams to sort out my landing CoD... luckily the CEO can't see the staff 😁

I managed to reorganise everything, got some stuff sorted for Ebay (some already sold!) Fb or chazzer, tidied out my cleaning stuff, washed all the microfiber cloths & dusters (and realised my ex-husband had been left with only one...he had a cleaner so I don't feel at all guilty about having custody of the other 19 🤣).

I've also reorganised Christmas into plastic boxes for the attic (need to do that at the weekend), and stashed vac-packs of summer clothes in the top of the CoD along with my walking stuff & boots, swimming cozzies & decorating clothes. The bedroom got some attention too, with my scarves being sorted & tidied into a repurposed storage thing in my wardrobe.

Four unused cushion inners have been Fb'd for crafting, four feather inners are being kept for my sofa's new cushion covers when the decorating is done, and I think I've convinced my cat to stop destroying the top-stair carpet 🙄

Am about to declutter the tail end of a bottle of wine along with some leftovers from the fridge while decluttering stuff from my HDD recorder 🙂

Mrs SD
Na afraid its been in my garage 20 years  boxes opened /closed / pondered over/ worried about/ guilt ridden over .We took some glass and ornaments and put in a small cabinet to remember the relative that kindly left it to us. 
To be truthful , i have two friends who are strughling to deal with grief and then sorting their parents house out thats made me rethink my own stuff

Well my mojo has took a hike as I've got myself stuck in a book, another day should finish it.

Then you can declutter it. Win win 😊

Oooo. Gold..Thanks for the Gold Star ⭐️  Mrsd SD. I am just happy to be of help. Hoarding tendencies and clutter can be very isolating esp as, in my case, I never wanted people round becasue of the mess and if they were coming it was a BIG deal.

Oh Elsein what a pain.
Bit by bit it sounds like you have had a light bulb moment. I can identify with some of your points too. I had my light bulb moment about 8 years ago.

Thankyou Vulpix. I keep having these light bulb moments but I am inconsistent. I do well for a while then fall back again on old habits. Getting better though.

Belated birthday greetings EnergyShifter 🍾🥳 🎂  Sounds like you had a marvellous day made all the better for not being expected 🙂🙂 I admire your resolve - one slice & then donating the rest of your cake .

I am not so sure I would have done. I would have eaten the lot over several days and then felt bad about it   
Just popping in to keep up. A large item was supposed to go today but it didn't so I will have to count I tomorrow.

Hi everyone - can I join you?

1. Electric Toothbrush (to recycling)

Two batteries! Hardly groundbreaking but taken to a recycling point. X

Quick check in, not a lot to report.

Pair of leggings and jacket belonging to DD to recycling.
Flask dropped by OH, binned.
2 pens 
A book and large toy to mum for brothers kids.

Going to try and be a bit more focussed this weekend. I’m finding this latest lockdown a bit tough and am tempted to hide under the covers once I finish work on Saturday!

Hope everyone else coping with everything that’s going on and still decluttering happily!x
