unclutterI hope everyone is managing more on the decluttering front than I, these last three days - I don't think I've managed to get a single thing out of the house, other than food related rubbish. And I've managed to fall into the trap of going into a DVD store to stock up before the school holidays (which start on Saturday), and come home with Far Too Many DVDs.
But on the plus side, I spent about three hours this morning helping a friend with packing to move house. They identified a number of items to go, some of which they weren't sure about until I was able to say 'have you considered giving them to x'. What I *should* have done was go prepared with a container to cart away things, but as it was, didn't have any way to get things out of their house, and all the boxes they had on hand ended up full. Plan is to offer to come past Friday afternoon (as I have to go past their place to collect youngest from school) with bags, so that I can cart things away.

As for the laundry, well...depression's kind of gotten the best of me over the last several months and that was the result. At least I've made a dent in the mess.

Yeah, I'm getting treated now which is why I'm able to "function" and get things done more. :)
