2023 DECLUTTERING CAMPAIGN Mrs SD

gettingthrifty

Hi All
Today i have tried to address the behaviours that contribute to my cluttering
5. dealt with post on arrival (used to have avalanching paper piles)
6. plastic drawers from old fridge freezer recycled( it broke down 3 days prior to chrismas our dishwasher broke the week before ) I resisted the temptation to keep the drawers just in case (of what?). Sensible DH said no good for the garden/shed as they will get brittle  when I inevitably leave them in garden ( he's right - I will).Also resisted temptation to keep, to offer anyone else (get the picture why i have clutter?)
7. returned unexpected medication found in meds bag my son brought from pharmacy yesterday. I havent had it for over a year and its a controlled drug following an op. Returned promptly asked them to note i returned it on their records to avoid future confusion
8.parcel returning clothes to parceldrop  shop ( changed to courier that collect from next door to pharmacy/supermarket to batch my errands)
9&10 binned two cards for coffee shop that dont do points anymore (keep returning them to my purse and forget they cant be used)

Am still slowly  chipping away.

Vulpix I believe my DH also got me those  russian doll cats....

Thats some of the boys old clothes ready for the charity shop too. A hoodlie, some shorts and swim shorts, a shirt and a cap. 

I have some bits of old carpet and underlay, gripper rods and bits of wood to go either to the tip or in the bin when there is room.

And it is bin day, just wondering whether I need a tip run or if I should just put stuff in the bin over a few weeks. It is a 20 min drive to the tip and I havens been before! Used to leave that to ex h so not sure how it works.

14. Took bag of contaminated( food containers) paper and cardboard to the allotment. Spent 30 minutes happily ripping it up and putting in the compost bin
15. Deleted loads of emails, left with a few froglets that need dealing with, so will tackle those tomorrow

Feeling good about my total up to date - I need to get ahead of myself on the 31 day plan as I will be back to being out of the house a lot next week.
 Decluttered today -
 2 tee shirts
9 pairs of knickers
10 bottles of nail polish
+ 2 jackets & 3 pairs of socks on earlier post so up to 38 items on day 4.
I finished my underwear drawer - still a lot in there but tidier. I put all my black uniform tights in one basket and thick socks together etc. I got the baskets from Wilk.

Decided 23 minute a day froglet must be something I have been putting off so opening account was my choice today

42 New savings account opened from Martin's suggestions - 23 minute froglet 
43 1 year Savings account closed and money transferred to one with better interest after chat with bank
44 Returned DGS2's hotel key card which he forgot to hand in last week - I drive past the hotel frequently
45 First of January's birthday cards posted
46 Quiz questions done for tomorrow

And I won another £25 on premium bonds.  Yippee. I have set my self a target of 'earning' an extra £100 a month from various places. I managed £134 in December.  Every little helps.

A little win again today - 2 gift bags too battered to reuse have been binned along with 3 old half used toiletries I won't finish.

I took some bottles and jars across the road to the recycling, when I went for my 7am walk. I am trying to take something out of the flat every time I go out.

Finally off the starting blocks

1. Tidied up the medicine basket and threw out a big bowl of empty boxes and leaflets and out of date medicine
2. Binned an old scrunchie that had lost it's elastic but had been hanging around for weeks.
