No email yet. I am keen to get started before I go back to work next week!

BasilOfBakerStreet · 02/01/2020 08:25

I'm in!

FiveShelties · 02/01/2020 09:03

I don't think the emails start until 6th January.

NurseP · 02/01/2020 09:26

Oh that's a shame. I want to get started now!!!

I'm in. DP gets the fear whenever I mention decluttering.

I still have no emails from them?

The January Cure emails don't start until 6th January.

If you're itching to start, you could do this weekend task that was sent out last weekend:

And here's the January Cure calendar for this year:

Ah, the link at the top of the page is for 2019, hence the confusion. It's definitely starting on the 6th this year, not the 2nd.

Spartonian · 04/01/2020 16:50

Thank you @kaldefotter I thought it was just another thing I was getting wrong.

I’ve done it the last two years. I’ve never done absolutely everything, but always made progress.

If I skip a day I either don’t sweat it or just do it the next day so that I finish in February.

DayOne

I'm going to do my kitchen drawer.

Well it took me 15 minutes to do the kitchen drawer so not sure I’ll be staying on track time wise ..!

Karcheer · 06/01/2020 18:09

OMG! That took me over an hour and we have two drawers like that (i only did one). Anyway - happy it's done!

One drawer done - who would think you could have so much useless stuff in one drawerGrin

girlsyearapart · 07/01/2020 07:22

Anyone know what time they normally send the emails out?
I only registered yesterday and got the generic welcome message but nothing else.
I only did the drawer thing here from a pps link

Pavlovspuppies · 29/01/2020 13:23

Anyone done it this year? Any thoughts?
This was my first year and I can't make my mind up. I find it a bit woolly and they're not too demanding of us - I both like this aspect and maybe feel a bit underwhelmed by it. Not sure it has made much difference to my home but I like the way they focus on having a fresh perspective. And I like having the weekends off!

girlsyearapart · 29/01/2020 14:22

I gave up. I liked the specific tidy up a drawer thing then it got a bit life coach Ish for me ..
