weekend check-in

[rmc28]

It's Friday, it's the weekend for me, and I've probably definitely got too many goals for it, but here's some themes and a check-in for everyone.

• ongoing decluttering - I actually filled our general waste bin last weekend, but it got emptied yesterday morning so I am free to declutter some more!
• getting things out of the house - I've built up several bags of donations now, so the trick is to get to the charity shop today before the usual weekend rush means they have to close to donations
• seasonal clothing - the seasons are definitely changing in this corner of England, and my clothing storage is ... not a full-on mess, but definitely showing entropy. So I'm going to do a little tidying and straightening and repacking, one area at a time (to keep from getting out of hand), and make it easier to find the warm layers now the mornings are colder.

Good progress! And thanks for the reminder, I brought in the seasonal clothes but I haven't gotten around to moving the other season back out.

This weekend looks to be busy with kid stuff, but I've come up with a scheme where the kid and I both only get a new book if we get rid of ten old ones, and she's got a stack of 40 to go out already...

What an excellent way to motivate oneself to get rid of old books, I am going to take note of that. ;-)

Here's to hoping you, too, find 10 books to get rid of!

Heh, my clothing is now much tidier, I can see all the warm things easily, and although I didn't intend it as a purge, I did end up filling a bag of stuff to give away along the way.

That is a cunning scheme you have going there with your kid. I hope she enjoys her four new books immensely!
