2021 MISSION DECLUTTER and CLEAN

D123456789

Posted 3 flea bay items, and whilst I was at the post office 2 more sold, typical eh?
oh well that’s 5 more items out plus all the charity bags this morning feels like a good job. Hoovered the kitchen and hall, and cleaned the downstairs wc. Had planned to do more cleaning but don’t really  feel like it now..... 

bed re made, DH fancies a take away tonight Greek, so I don’t have to cook. Happy Friday 😋

Thanks everyone, hugs to everyone who needs one. He did me a favour really as I hadn't realised how abusive he was.  
I've bid on a few properties that are closer to my parents as I don't really have much of a support network where I'm currently living and I don't drive. Thankfully I do have one friend who is an absolute superstar, she has been helping me with shopping because she drives.

Todays declutter: 4 random plastic lids that don't fit anything, 3 broken Christmas decorations and a half open bag of flour that we made into shortbread as my sons weighing maths lesson

32.   Sorted out a big pile of cards of DMs. Some were from neighbours who have moved and she has no contact with now. Still sorting but a big pile of things into recycling

Another 6 neutral items sent to organiser (was easier to send while I had a box) =25 items sent

kat360, a fab idea to combine school & baking and maybe a science lesson too?

1. KITCHEN WILL CONTINUE TO BE LEFT CLEAN & TIDY EVERY NIGHT

2. JUST DO ONE THING EVERY DAY (courtesy of bit_by_bit) OTHER THAN DAY TO DAY CLEANING & DECLUTTERING 
3. CLEAN ONE ROOM (TOP TO BOTTOM) EVERY MONTH (hopefully 3 weekly by the end of the year)

Another Friday done & dusted and Wasted by me 😔😔 A bright sunny day so really should have done some washing 😔 Sum total of Friday activity was cooking my very first gammon joint 😉; finished knitting a beanie & a long leisurely bath 😊 Earnest was notable by his absence ☹️
Dinner was gammon, egg, chips & baked beans 😋

210 - 213 Kitchen recycling, glass jar, empty salt container, drinks cans - recycled

214 - 217 Kitchen detritus, Uu mini bath gel, Sunday knickers, plastic soap refill sachet - binned

Sorry you are feeling so down balabooberlies ☹️ When I read the following though I had every faith that you would pick yourself up & dust yourself off 👏  “However, am determined to see this through.  I know I have stalled which normally makes me give up.  But not this time.  I will see this through until the end of the year and if clearing the house is the only thing I achieve then I will be grateful.  It has to all start from this one thing as all the 'stuff' holds a lot of misery/depression accumulated over 8 years.  It steals my energy and joy.  It's a thief !”  Just to prove me correct, you deleted over 1,000 emails 👏👏 very cathartic 🙂  I am impressed that you picked yourself up & searched out something to do -  a very successful task which has earned you a Gold Star ⭐️ 

Oh dear gilly1964 ☹️ very pleased you are on the mend 🙂 By the way well done in keeping up with the day to day ‘keeping clutter out’ 👏 

EnergyShifter, not only a beautiful office but saving money on heating - very MSE 👏

What a beautiful post elsien 👏 so encouraging 🙂 One Gold Star ⭐️ on its way as you have perked me up 👏🙂

vulpix thank you for the reminder that it can happen to anyone ☹️ - glad your friend was ok 🙂 Doorman extraordinaire 😉 You should definitely number cleaning the whole house 👏 

Well done on the ‘furtling’ VickyV 👏 Furtle is such a musical word - brought a smile 😃 

Excellent work D123456789 👏 That is what I call ‘Extreme Decluttering’ 😉 So impressed that one Gold Star ⭐️ is on its way 🙂 You have been very busy - a.m. and p.m. 👏👏 May I ‘borrow’ a bit of your energy?😉

Hugs are always welcome nannywindow 👏 so I will take a couple because I am greedy 😉  You didn’t waffle 😉 you raised a valid point 🙂 Really pleased that you have hidden the walnuts as it would not be much of a coffee & walnut cake without the walnuts 😉😉

Thanks for the useful info Viking_mfw 👏

Good work Barny1979 👏

Great work short_bird 👏 regardless of the waxing & waning decluttering mojo 😉 You probably work with phases of the moon 😉😉

Great work moneyonmymindsam 👏 especially the cards 👏 Rather impressed with the exchange of decluttering tasks 👏👏🙂

Good for you kat360 👏 seeing the positive side 👏 Everything crossed 🤞that you get a suitable property for you & your kids, nearer to your parents but not too far away from your friend 🤞I agree with Floss - what a great idea to combine baking with maths 🙂

Good work HappyKitties 👏 on both the decluttering & the neutral items 👏

I haven't posted for a while, sorry I can't catch up withposts, over 300 since I last posted.  Not been feeling too good and the homeschooling on top.
DH has filled 2 black bins with rubbish over tge last 2 weeks as tge bins were going out empty. I got really annoyed at him that he didn't keep a record of what went in so that I could list it so all I have is...
121-122 black bins full of clutter!
2/20 bags of clothes
22000/30000 emails decluttered 

Hoping to get back on it as fell behind massively.
