Weekly (ish) check in

How goes the decluttering? Have you shifted anything out of the house? Found something to sort through? Had thoughts on things you can let go of?

Comments open to locals, lurkers, drive by sticky beaks, and anyone I've forgotten to mention.

Congratulations to everyone who has found and/or disposed on any clutter in the last week!

Yesterday's success was declaring that I don't need to empty and clean out a set of jars -- we have enough, so I put them all in the bin. These have been sitting there for ages because the cleaning was going to be finicky, and I haven't had the oomph.

Yesterday my mother took away a bag of books for the heritage railway's secondhand bookshop and a marmalade jar to re-use.

Today, not yet gone, I've listed two unwanted yoga mats and an artificial christmas tree on Freecycle. Fingers crossed that someone wants them!

I didn't even get through my usual weekly clean-up, let alone any extra decluttering, but I only have 2½ days of work this week and then I'm on winter break and I've got Friday set aside for errands and chores.

Boxing Day came early for me this year as I donated four puzzles and a plush dolphin.

I'm thinking of donating some cookbooks we've never used the next time the Epilepsy Foundation comes around.

Update: the yoga mats have been collected!
