2018 - No Clutter To Be Seen

1. IF I NOTICE SOME SMALL TASK NEEDS DOING - I WILL DO IT IMMEDIATELY

2. I WILL LEAVE A ROOM TIDIER THAN WHEN I WENT IN - WITHOUT HIDING THE CLUTTER EXCEPT for the wardrobe room which is currently the storage room (sr)

3. THE LAST WASHING UP OF THE DAY WILL BE PUT AWAY BEFORE I GO TO BED

Happy Kitties, :T:T:T well done - I also find decluttering addictive when I have my decluttering mojo The local community group will be very happy with your donation :T:D

marmiterules, very impressive :T Do you have a target in mind?

After last night’s pink sky Saturday was hot, hot, hot :T:j DSis & I walked to the park for the Farmers Market. Good job there were only a few stalls as I would have had to mortgage the house otherwise. However I did treat myself to some fresh unpackaged f&v, 3 small jars of honey, salami, some eggs & some bread but resisted the cupcakes :rotfl: My purchases meant no cooking & a very tasty dinner
Felt quite good on the way home as picked up a plastic bag blowing along the pavement & filled it with litter Why oh why do people think it is OK to throw tin cans, plastic bottles & drinks cartons into the bushes :mad:

DH tried C&C again for a different Wic*es re the w/e offer on ornamental gravel. Success:T He & DSis went & collected 8 bags - reduced in price + 4 for 3 - so instead of £72 he spent £30 - very :money: All the bags are now stacked in the garden while we wait for the new shed

My decluttering mojo is still enjoying its holiday in the company of basketcase’s mojo but I did vacuum downstairs (moved furniture) incl. kitchen floor (remembered to empty the vacuum :rotfl: - surprising how much better it picks up :rotfl:) & turned the sofa cushions.

Looking forward to hearing from retiredinfrance - hope you are OK?

So just my three mantras - aired & made bed, washed up, dried up & put away as I went along including the last lot of washing up; washed down kitchen work surfaces; garden watered; birdies & squirrels water bowls refilled & wormery towel doused several times; tightened toilet flush handle & also took the opportunity to clean loo ; general tidying;

Found this thread highly motivating last year. Cant believe we,re august already and the house is becoming cluttered again. SInce it;s 2018have decided to decluttered 18 items every day till end of year. So far
1) 18 books
2) 18 mugs (! They are no longer double stacked and overflowing into another cupboard!j
3) 18 glass items, all washed and recycled. Several decluttered simply by decanting but an embarrassing number a small amount left in a jar out of date
4) 18 bags (this was between 3 of us)
Today is going to be Tupperware. See ya later

29/52 - my decluttering mojo is very low at the moment but I thought a small post was better than nothing at all! So a present wrapped and sent which used up a very small amount of lying around packaging.

Rootle, I think it has gone on holiday with mine & basketcase!!!8217;s mojo :rotfl: I believe they were off to see retiredinfrance :rotfl:

:T Well done DundeeDoll :T

Today was another hot one but a bit cooler than yesterday The clear blue was conducive to watching the moon up until 1:00 p.m. when it disappeared :rotfl:

DH & DSis tried to fit some extra lights to the motorbike but had the wrong connectors So all back together but two hours wasted :eek:

I am hoping my decluttering mojo & basketcase’s return from their holiday tomorrow as I really want to get on with it now . Cooked a full roast beef dinner today, repaired a burn hole in my oven gloves (but only after burning one finger ) and chatted with my next door neighbour for half an hour - that was the sum total of any endeavours today

So just my three mantras - aired & made bed, washed up, dried up & put away as I went along including the last lot of washing up; washed down kitchen work surfaces; garden watered twice; birdies & squirrels water bowls refilled twice & wormery towel doused several times; indoor bins emptied into appropriate wheelie bins; general tidying;

The day to day decluttering has generated

B1937 - B1943 Non recyclable - 5 plastic bags, 2 lots of plastic packaging - binned
B1944 - B1953 Two plastic pots, plastic milk carton, glass bottle, plastic bottle, 5 tins - rinsed & recycled
B1954 - B1957 cardboard packaging, magazine read, paper packaging, small plastic box - Recycled

I really need to set myself some sort of project but am dithering about whether it should be big or small :undecided. I know once I have started I will get on with it but but at the moment I am Mrs Dither of Ditherville, Ditherington :rotfl:

Oh well, I am off now to check the calendar for September birthdays - will check my small stash & see if I have cards or whether I need to spend a bit of money
