20 bags of junk

Lol. I am off work this week and have been having a tidy up, I cleared out my daughters room this afternoon and filled two black bin liners of rubbish. I have two bin bags ready for the recycling bin tomorrow.

Most of the stuff will be recylced (clothes) but theres a part of me feels really really sorry for all the toys and teddies in the bags, poor dora the explorer?

We don't have kids but i know that feeling well, each time we've moved (and it's been a few times now!) we've had a huge sort out and seem to bag up tonnes and tonnes of stuff which has been accumulated in what seems like a very short space of time. Clothes go either to the Salvation Army collection bins that are scattered around the Island (though smarter stuff goes to the Red Cross shop for sale), books go to my bosses dad who organises a massive book sale a couple of times a year in aid of the Guide Dogs for the blind, magazines and anything else that can be goes for recycling and the genuine rubbish goes in the bin.

It's knackering and seems never ending at the time but well worth it in the end....I promise!

Im stuck now, got the oomph but ive run out of bags and need my h to go the tip tomorrow., im quite enjoying finding carpet

Gah that always happens to me too! I run out bags when clearing out or needing to empty the bin, I run out of clingfilm/tinfoil when i've made the sandwiches and need to wrap them, I run out of washing powder when i've huge pile of washing that needs doing.... who does the shopping around here and why can't they get their act together??

Ooops that'll be me too! ? I guess I get distracted by all the lovely food and drink in the shop and forget the other stuff!

Hope you get more bags and more carpet is uncovered ?

What a lovely feeling though when its all cleared up and gone. I love filling bags ready to dispose/freecycle.

Ok bring on day 3 of the big clean out, it was lovely this morning the kids got up and could actually play!
