My energy levels have been in the toilet the past two weeks and I haven't exactly been decluttering one thing a day, but when I write it all down, it doesn't look so bad.

To the recycling
- 2 carrier bags of #4 plastics
- dead batteries
- assortment of half-empty  plastic squash bottles - sludgy brown ribena, ick.
- old christmas and birthday cards
- 2 glass jars from pasta sauce, eaten with delicious raviolis
- Can from BBQ chili. I have way too much non-perishable food - 6'-worth of freezer, a pantry, 4 shelves, and a cupboard that aren't exactly bare, so I'm counting any food that I buy/have that isn't being used up immediately, and I'm trying to eat a few meals a week from the cupboards to clear them out.

To the bin
- carrier bag of make-up and nail varnish. I was really gutted I had to pitch all this stuff but I can't think of anything else you could do with half-used make-up - apart from use it up, which wasn't going to happen here.
- bin bag of unrecyclable trash

To work/family
- carrier bag of various teas decanted into tupperware donated to the canteen - to make inroads on my tea and tupperware mountains.
- wireless dongle mailed to my mum

other stuff
- limescale prevention thing into the loo. Ok, technically it hasn't left the house yet, but it's out of my cleaning supplies cupboard.

In
- tin of smoked paprika
- jar of asafoetida
- pork shoulder. I bought this to cook this week and wouldn't have counted it, but it ended up going in the freezer instead.
- 2.5" hard drive, bringing my total number of not-in-a-computer internal drives to 8 /o\ I need to find some time to go through them, save what I want to the ones I'm actually using, and reformat them for selling or giving away.

Total: 4 in/13 out

*hugs* Good work! It can be so easy to beat ourselves up for not meeting some standard - have a pat on the back for what you accomplished!!
