Ooo did one of you blow some magic decluttering powder in my direction?

^Is that what you call a 'breakthrough '?

3 unused notelets without envelopes- torn up to use for scrap at work

 You are on fire rountuit.

 3 patch bays given away. sort of like a telephone exchange but for a recording studio.

 I cannot begin to tell of how happy I am when I look back at how much we have rehomed over the past decade. We have gone from 2 full 3 bed houses to a 2 up 2 down. Admittedly with a shed that can be seen from space!

 I have finally got an appointment with a Doctor. My new practise is better already, you can phone and speak to a friendly human.

Track & gubbins now in a healthy bag & ready to leave the building.
Batteries - recycled.
Old bag and broken bits - binned.
Book (that was at the bottom of the box) - cover binned & pages recycled (it must have got wet at some point 😬)

Kitchen table top:
Plaque - cs

Kitchen floor:
Trophy - DS
Bags x 2 - added to bag of bags

I'm now going to go through my lunch bag, sort the contents, bin the tatty bag, and replace with a linen bag from the bag of bags. I've been meaning to do it - that's why I'm called Roundtuit 😉

Glad you managed to get an appointment with the doctor, vulpix xx

Christmas present delivery:
Presents - taken upstairs
Packaging - recycled / binned

Christmas catalogue- recycled
Letter - to be shredded

Ooo that box is just the right size to hold a selection of DS's trophies ready to go to his house. 😊. My cup runneth over 😊. GF be aware 🤣 As well as the numerous trophies at this house, there are others stored at his Grandad's house, and his Dad's house. But I'll concentrate on just gradually filling this one box for now. 😇

A-Z dividers - take to work (someone there will want some eventually no doubt)

Kitchen floor
Trophy - DS's box (the first one was lonely 😉 )

The bag of tracks & gubbins has gone. 😁.

I've brought down an expanding A-Z wallet from RoD. Quick glance indicates that the contents relate to 2005. I think my shredding pile is about to increase.

Monday - wet and miserable. I have wrote a plan which gets me into the right headspace.

I will tackle one pile of papers tonight and I'm timing myself 1 hour then stopping.

I've been out this morning to get a blood test done. It was much better than in London, it was only me in the waiting room and I didn't even have to wait as I got seen straight away. Unfortunately it rained all the way there and back!

I tried on a hat I had bought as I thought I could wear it this next weekend as I'm going out and it is meant to be chillier. It looks stupid on me so that will be donated. I tried on a red t-shirt top as I needed to wear something without long sleeves for my blood to be taken and I didn't like the look of the top either so I will go through my wardrobe again to see what else can go.

I’m late to the decluttering party but moved house in June and realised I’ve just got too much stuff. Admittedly the house we moved into lacks shelving, cupboards etc that we had before, and we can eventually do something about that, however, now I want to declutter more first. 

So although I’m late (Nov start) I want to get into the swing of decluttering before 2023 - so I can make 2023 a clutter free year! 

Starting now to get some practice in! 

I will start on the conservatory- which is one  of three dumping grounds for our house move junk.

A to Z gone through.

Pile of card - recycled
Pile of paper - recycled
Pile of paper - to be shredded.

Pile of school reports etc - DS

Which leaves me with a few things to file including my school reports ( not ready to let go at the moment), the letter inviting me to join Mensa 🤓, my blood group card, and cards relating to my baptism and confirmation. 

Bookmark added to stash

That was a trip back in time. Earliest receipt was dated 1991. 

Going out for coffee with a friend now.
