2019 - A Clutter Free Life

Mornng fellow declutterers.

A quick tidy of the bedroom this morning and a pair of socks binned. Nothing to strenuous yet.;) While doing this DH announced that we really need to get the bay roof and guttering fixed. It's been leaking for a while but with everything going on its been ignored. This means we have a massive decluttering project in the front room. It was my sewing room but has turned into a complete dumping ground in recent months. I'm going to have to be incredibly ruthless.

This will be the first in a long list of repairs which need doing and hopefully will be the kick up the bum needed. Plus they can only be done if the junk is decluttered.

Anyway this afternoon and evening will be spent in the room from hell and if I'm not heard from in a day or two send help.:rotfl:

Have a fab Sunday.

I'm going to have a day of rest from decluttering. I need to do some ordinary housework. It's so easy to do these days, so the rest of the day will be spent doing something nice. My DD and DGD are coming later so I will have some quality time with them.

Have a good day folks.

Afternoon everyone. Once again real life has interrupted my attempts to log on here to chat to you lovely people.
I think I'll have to accept that I'm a once a week girl now on here until further notice :rotfl:

Anywhoo, still de-cluttering here, sold a few bits and pieces on ebay so they've been posted and money has went to the credit card :T
I think I'm going to give ebay a rest now as I'm finding that people are just being plain rude in their messages, literally expecting things for nothing. This past 2 weeks alone I've had offers on items for far less than what I paid for them and what I even have them listed for:mad:

2 items I bought in America, they cannot be bought anywhere anymore as they are dated merchandise items. Listed them at £10 each - half than what I paid for them and had people sending offers ranging from £3-£5, ermm no cheapskates, I'd rather donate it to a charity shop as they'd get more money for it than that.:eek: What's even more insulting is these items are brand new, with prices still attached and still in the original, sealed packaging, so why they think I would accept less than my listed price is plain stupid.
Had another girl try to dictate to me how I should post the item if I accept her stupid "offer" and the cost it should be.
She was politely told that if she had bothered to look at my feedback, I have been selling for 10 years or so, so I know my way around the postage rates lol. She was then politely told to do her research before contacting sellers and offering insulting prices and "advice"

Anyway, ended up selling them on a FB group, the buyer actually offered more than what I was asking as they said they knew it was worth more than what I was asking, so I sent her a few other bits for free to say thank you.

I'm just about to have dinner so think after that I'll take myself up to the attic and have a rummage through and see what can be put out. It's raining here today so may as well so something productive lol.

Off now to have a read through the last weeks posts on here before dinner. Hope all is well with everyone.

My ebay is all on BIN with no offers. I price things attractively and people can take it or leave it. Facebook groups are good for selling stuff especially as you are not paying ebay fees. Facebook marketplace/local groups can be full of timewasters and people wanting things for nothing IME.
