Do I need a butcher's trolley? Maybe, maybe not. Can't afford one anyway, so no danger of re-cluttering!
Someone the other day asked how many times you'd relist an item on ebay if it doesn't sell - I relist as many times as I can be arsed, generally :) It's setting up the listing in the first place that's the real hassle, so it has to be something that I think will sell for me to even bother. I have in the past sold something on the third relist attempt, and then two people both want it and you get quite good money. So I'd say don't give up on it after one attempt, if it's worth ten minutes to list, it's certainly worth two seconds to relist. I only list / relist when it's a free weekend, so it's no bother really.
I persuaded DP to get rid of the George Foreman thing a year or so ago, he used to swear by it for sausages and bacon, but I didn't think it cooked them very nicely. It was on its last legs, DP would have replaced it, but I convinced him that the grill does a far better job, and we have never missed it.
If I'm just making porridge for DD, I use one of the measuring cups that came with the breast pump! One of oats, one of milk, one of water, makes just the right amount of porridge for a toddler. I will have to rethink that soon though, she's eating like a horse at the moment and growing like a weed.
Welcome to Flojobunny. My approach for piles of paperwork is this:
Sort into four piles: Bin it / act on it / file it / don't know.
Sort the "Don't know" pile first, because everything will need to go on one of the other three.
Next, work through the "act on it" pile, doing what you need to do. You will then move the items to either the bin it or file it piles.
Bin / shred / recycle the "Bin it" pile (being careful with documents that have your personal details on, obviously.)
File the "file it" pile.
Unfortunately, until you've attacked it head on, there's no way to really make it any easier, you do just have to brace yourself and start. Once you've got the piles sorted it's so much easier to keep on top of.
