Weekend uncluttering
Jul. 10th, 2017 04:42 pmTired mouse posted this to their personal blog last night, and is just copying across what *should* have ended up here yesterday
How did everyone's uncluttering go this weekend?
Sadly, I think I have nothing to report. Yesterday I spent working on getting caught up on a couple of things; today I slothed, then partner and I walked to the local shops where we had a coffee, and then I rested for the remainder of the afternoon.
... Oh, I cleaned the rubbish out of the car! The car is a little tidier, because there wasn't as much as there sometimes is. It might be that I've finally trained either myself or my kids to take the rubbish in when it gets created. ... nah, probably just because it is school holidays, and I'm not feeding teenagers whilst in transit between school, home, and extracurriculars.

Date: 2017-07-10 09:35 pm (UTC)Tonight I put out the recycling - 3 crates and a bin (1 each for glass, plastic, cardboard/paper and cans). I added another phone book to the pile that's being donated (where have I been hoarding them all for the last few years!). I've also added some more out of date medication to the bag to go to a pharmacy and some more DVDs to one or other of the bags to go - 7 DVDs intended for 3 different destinations. More will, in theory, follow.
Oh, yeah, I also got rid of the old iron which has been waiting to go to the recycling centre - a friend was planning on going there with some stuff from their home so I asked if they'd mind taking it at the same time. :D
