Oops. We have so much to sort out in our house - presents are pretty much sorted thanks to my eBay obsession but the house is cluttered and we haven't even begun to think about decorating, food, family visits etc.
Normally we would have by now, last couple of Christmases I've been super organised (well, except for the tidiness thing, I admit I've never been good at that!) but this year I have started work and college as well as committing myself to various volunteer things.
We have decluttered quite a lot over the year but we have such a long way to go! Some of the DCs' presents are big in size (dressing up box) so I am determined to clear more space somehow. We recently got a big game cupboard so that has helped, but they still have a lot of toys I should get rid of. We've sold some, and donated some, but I really need to throw some away too Also need to sort out the kitchen a bit more.
Decorating isn't done until after my birthday in a couple of weeks, so not quite such a big deal.
Anyone else got any tips, or just want to join me in an "oh bugger, not long now!" thread?
