2019 - A Clutter Free Life

1. SMALL TASKS WILL BE DONE ASAP
2. I WILL LEAVE A ROOM TIDIER THAN WHEN I ENTERED
3. KITCHEN WILL BE LEFT CLEAN & TIDY EVERY NIGHT
4. WHEN DEALING WITH CLUTTER I WILL USE ‘Daisy1571’s idea of ‘WHAT WOULD I DO WITH THIS ITEM IF IT WAS SOMEONE ELSE’S ?’
5. IF I WAS STARTING FROM SCRATCH, WOULD I BUY THIS?
6. BE LIKE A POSTAGE STAMP - STICK TO ONE THING UNTIL YOU GET THERE

Today we were all very late getting up - I was up 1st so made teas & coffee. DSis had an appointment at the surgery - nurse then doctor so had a bath beforehand. DH is trying to make his F*tb*t happy - so went for a couple of 20 minute walks My F*tb*t is happy again - have been active for 10 hours, reached my goal for daily steps including a 25 minute walk. I sorted the baking shelf in the larder - combined a few bits. Also emptied & rearranged the contents of the Br*xit Cupboard & also the condiments/herbs/spices cupboard. Contents listed & printed off. Home cooked fish, chips & mixed vegetables for dinner

110 - 111 Contents of 4 plastic pots decanted into 2 plastic pots - 2 pots binned
112 Contents of 2 small boxes decanted into one - box recycled
113 - 116 Two Uu glass jars & 2 metal lids - washed out & recycled
117 Newspaper read & recycled

So now that I have faffed around in the kitchen, tomorrow I need to pick a box from the spare room & knuckle under I really must stop shilly-shallaying around otherwise I will never get my numbers moving

Cheerleading starts here

sellotape, well done on keeping the numbers moving along :T It does make it difficult having no transport - having to wait when you have identified an item is a ‘pita’ :rotfl:

villagelife, typical eh :rotfl: perhaps you can hide some of his clutter & if he doesn’t notice then get rid Well Done on keeping the numbers ticking over & I applaud getting maximum use out of your seed trays :T

ScarletRibbons, repurposing is almost as good as decluttering especially as you have tidied as well :T

chupachups4, Good work - decluttering plus building up the savings pot :T

whmf00001, being flexible in your attitude to stuff is a major decluttering bonus. If it doesn’t sell, give away - I applaud you :T as you say - you just want stuff gone out of your home :rotfl:

Well done HappyKitties :T

parsniphead, no ‘pushing’ yourself - decluttering is a ‘joyful pastime’ :rotfl: not a chore :rotfl: or so I try to tell myself :rotfl: Anything decluttered is a win :T

White_musk, hope you have thawed out properly

janejamie, Well Done on keeping stuff out of landfill :T The way you are decluttering you will definitely reach & pass the 100 mark very easily

bargainhunterss, nothing like having visitors to spur you on to declutter
That’s why we never invite anyone in :rotfl:

nannywindows, you’ve obviously ‘borrowed’ my decluttering mojo :rotfl:
Regardless of that, well done on the really good decluttering :T & getting DH on board & I fully approve of having your own chauffeur :T

DD265, Well Done on the decluttering of paperwork :T - I always find shredding so therapeutic You seem to have the books/DVDs well sorted - I now only have 2 series of books + lots of copies of LOTR & a copy of The Stand which I will be keeping & am currently rereading after seeing the TV series recently. Last year I cleared out 400 - 500 books - all to cs & every single one read at least once Still have way too many cookery books

Hermia, Hopefully ‘loads of money’ in your piggy bank

Well said daisy 1571 :T

Onebrokelady, Well Done :T - you have definitely caught the decluttering bug :rotfl:

Welcome Barny1979 - Well Done on selling items :T & I hope you have a nice treat planned

Gem-gem, excellent decluttering & more money in the piggy bank :T. Perhaps your ‘expensive per wear clothes’ could be sold & any proceeds banked as your clothes/shoes allowance. I must say I was extremely impressed by how little you spent on DVDs last year

I will love you & leave you

More power to our decluttering mojo
