You are so brave. This clearing is one of the hardest things you will do. Sending love.

Something especially heartbreaking about glasses isn't there. 
Well done you. I know I keep saying it but you're doing so well. All hard stuff but needs to be done and I am in much admiration and sending lots of sympathy and supportive vibes x 

P.s. we didn't dust the sign, there was a sleepy-looking owl on it and we thought best not disturb

Darling @redofromstart, you've taken the first and most difficult step in this part of the process.   Sending hugs love Humdinger xx

That must be a very difficult job for you to tackle. Well done for making a start. You’re doing so well under the circumstances 🙂

Well done for starting - sending you a virtual hug. 

15 minutes sprints sound very sensible on such a task

Thank you all.  I truly appreciate the cheerleaders on here, my darling offspring don't even 'see' the mess.  They do now every so often do 'has something changed in here?' which amuses me.  

Anyway, that brings me on to a confession.  Yesterday I went to a wool warehouse outlet sale.  It was an aladdin's cave of lovely wool in all shapes and sizes.  The 'good' materials came in at the price of acrylic so I now have a rather large stash of merino/alpaca/mohair/silk/linen in my favourite colours.  It was generally in kilo packs so enough of everything to make a decent sized project.  My fritter fund took the hit, and it is certainly a years worth of entertainment but it is also a large pile of materials to store, which will need to go in, I don't know, the freshly cleared Craft Room of Doom. I know, stop laughing.  

If I ever mention going to a wool sale again please remind me of this incident. 

If I am missing it is because I am admiring my treasure trove and deciding what to do next because it is all very lovely.  What I actually need to be doing is some weeding before the rain starts again (huge hailstones last night!) and doing some more clearing.

Enjoy the wool!

i can think of a lot worse to spend fritter money on.  i love materials that feel nice.  enjoy the wool

But if you think of the hours you will spend crafting it then really it’s actually cost effective / neutral !

If the wool purchase makes you happy just looking at it then it’s serving a purpose. Good to read about something that’s lifted your spirits 🙂
