Weekend uncluttering

How goes the uncluttering this weekend?

I've been a bit out of sorts, and haven't done much more than move things around as if that will miraculously cause the house to be less cluttered. I did manage to frog one more abandoned piece of knitting though!

On Monday, I took a car load of boxes and bags (a mix of clothes, books and DVDs for the most part and a few miscellania) to the charity shop.

Yesterday, I gave a bag of unwanted bedding to someone who thinks they'll be able to use it (it's a mix of things that are too old for normal use and can be used as dustsheets and ones that I find uncomfortable to sleep under that they think they might be able to use). I also put a bin bag of rubbish in the bin and took some stuff to the recycling centre (drawer from old fridge, hose from old tumble dryer, some polystyrene packaging and a broken mop - that kind of thing).

I've made an arrangement to deliver about six boxes of books to a school in about a week and a half so have been spending a fair amount of time over the weekend finding more books to add to the boxes (or fill another) before I deliver them - I've added 8 so far and piled about another 8 that I need to make a decision on before the delivery date.
