SPRING-Clean Declutter - Need Help

Yippee - happy times @Former-Member!!!!!! Must have felt good to have that corner of the room all cleared up. You must be proud of your progress. We are.

Great news that your son has been in contact with you. I could sense the disappointment you felt when he didn't on his return. Not so good about his arm. Good that he had a wonderful holiday and is keen to tell you about it.

You are doing brilliantly @Former-Member. And making a bit of cash as well is a nice bonus. I still have some of the ex BPD's things here in the garage. Must sort through them. Been putting it off.

I've been out walking. Will have breakfast and then settle down in front of the computer for the day. Yoga this afternoon. Same, same.

Looking forward to hearing about your progress today.

Hi @Former-Member

I had no idea you had so many rooms and so many beds as well as the clutter - and that you have some interesting things like that treadle sewing machine - my grandmother had one of those - it would be worth quite a bit now - I wonder what happened to it

It's so good you could sell something like that - wow

And where are you planning to live? And when do you think that will be? I guess you have to sell the property you have now first before you can make decisions like that.

And you are in the Achey-Painey Club with me this morning - the entry price is having arthritis or back pain or just bl^^dy tired after all that work - are in Over-Doers Anonymous

It started to rain here overnight - I didn't get to sleep much -

All the best with the de-cluttering

My old high school had treadle sewing machines. If we were lucky, we were allowed to then progress to the electric ones. My Mum had one as well. She was an expert seamstress, had so many skills and so creative - all self taught.

I had a treadle sewing machine base that I put plants on. Think I sold that for $20 to the back neighbour a long time ago.

My girl - well - I think at times she struggles between dependence and independence. She's very capable but having me around makes her feel otherwise sometimes. Probably why she makes comments like - "Washing again? I used to only wash once a week" Funny thing is that 75% of the laundry is hers.

You sure sound like you're on the ball this morning. Another productive day coming up @Former-Member.

You can put a folded towel or blanket under your knees to soften the impact during child's pose.

Hi @Former-Member

Maybe you could get a little more for the sewing machine - you could ask.

After all - those old things would be vintage by now - over 100 years old - my Gran was a tailoress - she had done an apprenticeship and her sewing maching would have been around since the early C20th at least

But if you don't feel okay about that - go with your price - it's better than nothing

Wow - your life is moving along atm

Hello @Former-Member, you have been busy today

I have cleared everything off my desk where I have my laptop on , wow have to keep it like this

ha ha but i have put everything on the table on the verandra -- oopps

Hello @Owlunar, @soul, @CheerBear, @Former-Member

Hi @Shaz51

I had my computer on a folding table and there was always paper there as well

This table was unsteady so I have started using my computer on my lap again and and put the unstable table into the carport to put out in the hard rubbish

And the good side - more room in my lounge and the paper has been put away - and I feel this place is so tidy I just about need a medal - aw well - not quite but I can imagine a medal

It's so good to get the lounge tidy
