Today, I shall be ruthless, today I shall be brave, today I shall....

[Disenchanted3]

takle the mountain of shit upstairs.

Everything not touched in the last 6 months will go.

Ah, I'll have a cuppa first ...

Right off you go then - up the stairs report back
a)the weirdest thing you are getting rid of
b)the heaviest thing you are getting rid of
c)the most embarrassing thing you are getting rid off
d)total weight or bags or number of items.

how's it going? stopped for afternoon tea yet?

I think she must have disappeared under a mountain of collapsing clutter. Do we need to call for help do you think?

I started today... 4 bin bags of rubbish/ clothes up to now and thats just our room,

The kids room tomorrow.

Then the JUNK room...that should be interesting!

You are doing really well!! My clutter clearing is taking me ages, partly because we are decorating as well but also because I can only face 15-30 mins at a time, sad I know

can you send me happy-i-have-a-lovely-home now type vibes, disenchanted? if you can inspire me with a tale of successful de-cluttering i may just summon the courage to tackle the junk cupboard.

every time i prise open the door to lob another bit of junk in there to hide it before someone comes round, i am terrified its all going to come crashing down and give me concussion.

Godspeed, brave Disenchanted. Godspeed.

i have done the same thing today, started hours ago by cleaning all the windows in the house...it was better than a workout! so far have cleared 8 bags of rubish...and a drum kit! but i just kept tripping over it and it isnt mine anyway so its gone to a better home. still have amsses to sort and under the stairs. toomuch i can sympathise with you...i shove loads of stuff under there if i have to do an extra quick get it out of the way. still so much to do but now ahve to go an collect my son from nursery. will continue tonight once he is in bed...then its justcase of keeping it that way! bugger!
