I appear to have a free weekend due to event cancellation. Oh my.

QueenJess

I finished going through the drawer in the room of doom and so more paperwork ejected. I also thought up some more things to get rid of.

May be more going tonight as I am on the night shift as DS is ill (they always wait until the bank holidays. This time last year I was in hospital with DD when she was ill. I’ll need to do something to keep myself awake.

Progress:

3937-93 - paperwork

3994 - changing bag

3995 - bag of seeds

3996 - bank account closed

14 bags of cans and bottles to the recycling center - we need to go a bit more often. Another box of books to the library for our next book sale - we have what seems like an unlimited supply.  Cleared another 1500 emails out for roommate- less than a week's worth! Site not good about separating out Spam.

Hi all,
@weenancyinAmerica, I was thinking the same thing about your books , you must have passed on at least a bookshops worth . You continue to amaze me with all you do. If I had a tenth of your energy I would have a clutter free house. 

@short_bird, what are you going to do with your free weekend? Something fun and frivolous I hope

Well I had a lovely 5 hours chat with my old line manager and I hope it has helped him. He was indeed stressed and he admits that some of the comments from his line manager amount to bullying but he's not bothered by that as he says he doesn't really care what they think of him and bullies only have power if you let them. He is looking for another job which is sad as he actually is an amazing teacher who the kids really respond to. If he leaves it will be a big loss to the school. I couldn't tell you all the things that he is stressed about, I would be here all night, but I think you are right Mrs SD, just having someone to talk to has helped him and I have told him I am always available for a coffee if he needs me.  A couple of things he told me made me so angry I swore, nuff said.

Apart from that I have made some progress on the union thing and completed a passport identification confirmation for a friend's 5 year old son. Really these things shouldn't be so complicated, I was the second confirmation they needed but it is possibly complicated by the fact they live in Germany and his wife is German.
Off to the footy tomorrow
Take care everyone

Gosh so much going on, trying to keep up with posts, amazed by how much everyone is doing, and sending hugs.

RL abit much at the moment, had to lie in darkened room last night instead of going to festival thing...think stress and too much comfort chocolate eating, dizzy and sick. Trying to get back on track, had hoped to take next week off work but will be odd half days - no proper holiday now for many years - mainly DD1 MH but my not getting my act together.

Decorators here in less than 2 weeks and doing bits all over house (bits and pieces) so need to get act together, DD2 going to be 18 and no plans sorted, and she's demotivated going into Year 13 - think young people (and others) really suffered with pandemic and hard to get her to declutter or do much.
2 frogs moved along, helping DD1 correct statement about her accident which was so badly written and didn't represent what she said but claim has been accepted so will get something and fingers x she will be back at uni in sept - her last day catching up with her placement in the hospital and says she loves it but know still struggle for her physically and mentally.
Sorry, prob too much info, but a declutter of what's on my mind. 
Going to tidy my desk, and then to do lists and come back and update nos and get back on track and report more positively.

Hi. Back in Blighty. Guernsey is British but not part of the UK. Who knew? A lovely break, beautiful food and met lovely people. 

 Tc77 you hit the nail on the head by saying you have decluttered your mind on the thread. It serves a valuable service to us all. Thank you Mrs SD for co ordinating us all. 

 On our way from Southampton (hi Vascoda) to Oxfordshire to visit DS’ new house. 

 Have a lovely weekend folks.

Well done chums on your excellent job decluttering, rooms minds and bodies.

Not much actually out of the door this week but been helping OH get house ready for going on market ie getting it staged ready for photos and the worst of the garden (drought affected plants removed) tidied.

Also been using up near and ood foods from OH’s cupboards, so decluttering of sorts still taken place.

Bag of food to food bank. 

Charity shop drop off.
Parcels to post office ( already labeled and paid for) 

And a boy safely arrived. So travel anxiety decluttered!
