2025 DECLUTTERING CAMPAIGN MrsSD - The Joy of Decluttering

CRANKY40

Your wish is my command. Here's some kitten photos - she was very quiet yesterday as she had her second jabs. She's halfway back to normal this morning and has also decluttered the remains of her first packet of kitten treats.

Thank you Cranky for the gorgeous pics. Look at that gorgeous little belly. I am addicted now and will need a regular fix please.

 Some frogs done. Ironing finished and put away. Swept up the run over garden pot. Pulled a few weeds and potted up a couple of plantlets I am taking with me when we move.

 Didn't touch the sewing. It isn't calling me. They are both black items and I struggle to see what I am doing with 1.5 eyes! I did lots of granny blanket crochet instead. I am using up all the oddments of pink and purple wool. It is making up quite nice.

 We are off out now, no idea where, Mr V just likes to go out a lot.

Vulpix  This is probably bonkers but could you use a light colour thread and go over it with a permanent marker pen?

@ CRANKY40- What a stunner!    Now that's a kitty who's full of life,  knows how to live, and securely relax! Although, I'd be tempted to pick up the pink nail varnish & give her nails a once over! - JJ!      I'd be far more inclined to kiss her tummy all over - I wouldn't get a thing done; except play, if she was here!

This morning whilst waiting for a lad to come and recover our shed roof I cleared out the airing cupboard. One bin bag of towels and linens to go. Some to car boot sale some to recycling. I had hoped to make up all of the guest beds as well but alas didn't get around to it. So this afternoon hopefully I will make up beds and do the ironing

Looks like thunder here

Gorgeous kitten.
Can tell I'm anxious and stressed about frogs as undertaking distraction activities and been round  CSs and given in to buying things.
Setting myself an hour to work on frogs and hopefully get into it.

@ TC77- It sounds as though you're a little burnt out TC77    Try a gentle breather and step back for a day and close the door on it or ignore and forget about it! Why not try and have a PJ day or pop out for a relaxing walk with no money in your pocket so at least you're not distracted from your walk and you don't come back with half a CS. I know when I've taken a break from decluttering, when I return I get far more completed because I'm fresh and more determined than ever   

I also think sudden changes in weather really don't help at times. I was gunning along with listing decluttering items to sell, but today I feel nauseous just thinking about listing anything, so I'm doing other things. Mainly pottering about in my PJ's having done the basic HH stuff for the day, other than a kitchen bin empty, surface wipe over & babyface washing machine load up later tonight and I'm loving the quality free time I'm having reading while babyface snores her head off after a big lunch - Nice to see she has a healthy appetite back but will have to reduce her food tomorrow now she's caught up with her food intake, otherwise pot belly pig look by Monday! 

@ Soontobeoap - Awesome going with the towel & linen decluttering! Although I will admit, I did keep 50% of my decluttered towels to use for babyface & my old fitted sheets I use as dust covers on furniture when I want to paint / decorate - saves me buying dustsheets because I can wash them afterwards, if I want to. Like I don't do enough washing    People don't believe me when I tell them babyface has far more washing each week than I do 

@ Mrs_Money_Penny - I really hope you enjoy your time away
