We managed to get all the way to the wall in the snall bedroom, uncovering the table that we were trying to clear right down to the wood. And the dust. No spiders, thankfully, at keast, not that we actually saw.
Our efforts were punctuated by cries of 'I was looking for this the other day' (the LEGO maze kit we built and played with one Christmas) and 'what on earth...?' (Son's GCSE Design and Technology project from mumble mumble years ago).
Four more bags for charity, one bag of rubbish, and several crates of defunct computer bits for electrical recycling.
(I don't want to even open the door of the other spare bedroom... guess where a lot of stuff got moved to!)
I've finished the Cover Story Stitching for June, and will pack and post it tomorrow. The next stage will be to attach a lining and choose a note book for it. I can't wait!
Music
Bilbo's song, sung by the vocal group Cantabile, on their album Lullabies and Goodnights.
A favourite song from a favourite album.
Well done with the decluttering! It sounds as though you got a lot done. It really is fun to find forgotten things.
ReplyDeleteThat's been an unexpected treat in what could be a joyless task.
DeleteWe still have our spare bedroom' to clear of 'stuff' and we've been here 4 years now!
ReplyDeleteIt's a 'this year, next year, sometime, never' sort of task, until 'NOW' suddenly arrives!
DeleteWhat an achievement! Well done. Now you have earned some time to please yourself.
ReplyDeleteA little bit of time...still plenty to do before next weekend!
DeleteDecluttering is so satisfying and the added joy of finding things that have been "lost" for a long time. Regards Sue H
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm feeling very pleased with yesterday's effort.
DeleteThank you so much for your kind offer of some craft stuff, Kirsten, but I think I have enough to keep me going for a while now. I really appreciate the offer though.
ReplyDeleteWell done with the decluttering. It's so satisfying isn't it! Now relax a bit in this lovely weather we're having.

No worries! I'll put the scraps back into the charity bag.
DeleteWell done for decluttering! My spare room is a can of worms I need to deal with!
ReplyDeleteA sudden deadline is the only way anything gets done in this household
