I started sorting through my clothes today - I am going to try and get rid of all the clothes that are not my colours as now that I am no longer dying my hair I look drab in some of my clothes. Also I'm determined to lose the weight and give myself a bit of a wardrobe makeover - frumpy has to go! So I was sorting my cardigans and I have kept 16 and put out 8 - at first I was going to keep them and wear them out but common sense prevailed and it they don't make me look and feel good then out they go! 8 cardigans 1 cardboard box 1 envelope 72/2017

Louie - a positive attitude can achieve wonders. Last leg of my kitchen deep clean today - the dreaded plastics cupboard! A total jumble of useless plastic jars, lids without containers, containers without lids all mixed up with a couple of shallow casserole dishes that I haven't used in 17 years and the lid of another casserole dish I broke 6 years ago and heaven only knows what other useless bits and pieces. So far today 50 assorted lids and containers into the plastics recycle bin, two casserole dishes and lids washed and ready for the op shop - total so far for 2017 = 700.

Just one load to take out of dishwasher, the kitchen floor to be washed and my kitchen deep clean is finished five days ahead of schedule. I can't believe how much I have managed to achieve in planned out fifteen minute stints. Some days I was able to do more than one fifteen minute job, other days not. Tomorrow I start my February project which is de-cluttering my general purpose room and boy is there a lot in there I can get rid of!
Today's throw outs were 6 chipped plastic containers and one defunct toaster. Total so far 707.

Just as a matter of interest can anyone tell me why all my posts say I have only posted 48 times? Is it because I have been using quick reply rather than reply?

Got rid of a book about quarters and how to grade collectable coins. Obtained a little pocket change when I took out the quarters that the book holds to collect. If that makes sense. 13 items for the year! Booya
