Weekend uncluttering

[fred_mouse]

How has the uncluttering gone for you this weekend?

I've some positives, and some negatives. Yesterday, I filled up the car with most of the items to be passed on, and took them to an op-shop. Was able to get rid of most everything, except that they aren't taking books at the moment, so I have books sliding around in the back of the car. Today, I went through the small pile of clothes I'd pulled out of the wardrobe last weekend with the 'use it or lose it' idea. All but three have gone in the new op-shop box, and two of the items that I did wear are going to get washed and put in the box as well. The three things kept are all seasonally work suitable shirts, so if I haven't worn any of them by next weekend, out they should go. And I identified a number of things to get rid of off the shelves (freeing up space to move things from the floor), but the kids have so far vetoed over half of them, and started actually working on finishing one of the projects that they haven't touched in over a year, so I guess I have to find space for them again, and find something else to rehome.

The rest of the unworn jewellery and unused mugs have gone to a charity shop, so that's one more bag out of the house! Old burned CDs thrown away after digitising the content, commercial CDs sorted and added to the outbox.

Paperwork will be tackled tomorrow.

so many CDs.. I am right there with you! I recently recycled a bunch of burned (burnt? who knows) CDs..

Well done on getting another bag of stuff out of the house and dealing with the CDs. And good luck with the paperwork.

That's quite the haul! I've been on the receiving end of someone else's old burned CD decluttering -- I'm hoping to put them in the fruit trees to scare the parrots.
