2023 DECLUTTERING CAMPAIGN Mrs SD

Ooops posted your name twice

A quick question - do people shop online for supermarket delivery? I used to years ago with Chavda but didn’t find it any good.
Have things improved since then and which are the better ones to go with?

We had heavy rain but the men worked on through it. They were here until 3.30 from 7.30 - think I picked the right people to do the job - even Mr F is impressed with them.
I have a new view when standing at the sink - the 1970's wall is no more. Company owner said he had 2 people passing who asked for a business card.
Just a bit nervous about the stuff left overnight in my front garden.
Volunteered to take in a delivery tonight at SA - it will be straight to bed when we get home.

Hello everyone. I have been away for ages. I seem to be chapters behind with the thread…. I am quite behind with household tasks too… but I started again today. 

I  bought some new gym clothes which are a bit more flattering so the old ones have gone to charity. 

I tidied away my daughters art work into 2 folders and recycled some that I think she won’t miss.

only a few of her clothes she’s outgrown also went to charity.

I have a dozen books to take to work where I think they will be useful.

I took 2 small electrical to charity and a bag of kitchen stuff that hasn’t been used for 6 months,

I doesn’t seem like a massive amount but it’s out the house already so that’s progress.

I listed 2 items on fleabay - I almost sent them to charity but they are new and unused so I thought I would try to sell them. I spent 20 pounds on a book for LO yesterday because she fell in love with it and I always buy her second hand ones so I treated her.

Now LO is home from school and she is sorting out her toys because she just can’t find anything and things are all in the wrong place. I know how she feels 😂

Wednesday, snag tights are the only ones I buy. With them I don't have to wear second knickers on top to keep them up!

Daisy, congratulations on your new furbaby!

Oh I remember doing that at school - I was very skinny with long legs, so not a good combo for one-size-fits-none 1970s/ 80s tights!

The tights and knickers conversation has made me laugh on the train home from work. Totally forgotten about doing that. Have may pairs of tights but hardly wear them. Keeping in case I change my style. Finding I am going back to some clothes. 
Hoping to do some decluttering when home.
Did an hour early morning,  including 2 waste bins for recycling, folder out, washing to go on when good weather and packaging etc out.

Fizz the M4 was a doddle compared with our other roads. In our borough some roads are 20 which is fine in our residential area, but others have a 30 mph sign going one way and 40 going the opposite way, it doesn't make sense !! 
Muddy I hope you feel a little better now. Extra hugs for you xx I use Iceland or Asda for sm delivery when I don't want/can't to face the actual shop and I find both are excellent.
Daisy ooooh ! 😍 Well done on taking on such an old lady.

Muddy, I occasionally use t-escos  but only because that's where Mr Flamingo works and we get discount

@Wednesday2000 May I recommend Snag tights? More expensive but worth every penny.

@Muddy_Walker we occasionally use home delivery - have done A$DA and Sainsb for convenience and ease of not dragging a baby round a supermarket! Must admit I'm not overly pleased with our recent A$DA delivery, ordered a variety of leafy greens (spinach, couple of types of lettuce, bok choi) and they're all naff - the little gems are smaller than my fist and half of them are browned already. It's very hit or miss I think.
