Packing

Being busy clearing the house out and the brain has moments of being fried. We are down to just under 4 months till our move and 18 years of hoarding  has been hard to let go of. Each time I finish through the house and get back to starting again I have found I have gained so much more confidence in throwing  things out.

Started packing boxes a couple of weeks ago of things we dont use often, But I have made the decision to keep in a bid to  unclutter the house. Oscar has now gone back to wanting to sell the house so now I can  totally flip out because I had a schedule of things I needed done to sell has seriously  gotten behind schedule. Today though the butt ugly tree I have detested for 18 years went today and it really boosted my spirits. We are finally starting to see progress. whoo hoo!

The difference it has made for my motivation has been amazing. Hopefully next week the plasterer will be here to get the lads wall fixed from when we had the leaky pipe in the bathroom, then I can paint  and get carpeting down. It's all so exciting. In the mean time tomorrow I will be braving my wardrobe.

Yes I know, scary! I have gone through it several times, but I have found somehow  nothing fits in there yet again. Blankets up on the high shelf  have been pushed back up haphazardly. shoes I had  gone through and replaced in  my shoe box are over flowing again, and I rarely buy  shoes! Yes there are strange women out there like me that hate buying shoes. Time to become ruthless with my shoes. there are shoes in the bottom I dont think I have worn in 2 years at least, but they are sensible, comfortable and still in good nick. That brown jacket that went out of fashion  sometime at the turn of the millennium might need to go find a new home too. Come to think of it Oscars side  has a whole pile of clothes that I dont think he has worn since he left high school so  perhaps his section can do with some culling and make room for me =oP. Now thats the smartest thing I have thought of all day. I knew this Blog thingy was good for my soul.

Another solution found, time to sleep  on it.
sweet dreams.
