@Adge how is the dreaded document sorting coming along? Have you been able to make a start on your health care card paperwork?

@Determined have you had opportunity to mention the considered surplus kitchen items to your Darling as yet?

We have talked about it and are in agreement @Former-Member . Juat need to do something about it.

Hi @Former-Member need to do major paperwork cull at some point.

The last time I did that, I collapsed with exhaustion before finishing (quite literally) - so am satisfying myself with "one in, one out" at the moment.

At least clutter does not increase, that way.

No haven't got to HCC yet.

Several stressful events (car mechanical problems, work harrassment, chilhood abuser contacting me) - then realised that Christmas is upon us.

Need to try to send some parcel hampers off - & organise somewhere nice to go (or people to spend Christmas day with).

I've spent far too many Christmases at home on my own - because nowhere to go.

Thanks for reminder, yes need to get to that.

In agreement = 👍

When it came to the kitchen I found it much easier to deal with a drawer or shelf at a time rather than a large scale effort.

Are you thinking the stuff could go to an op shop? Other?

@Adge

Overdoing things = 😵

Sticking to the one in one out rule = 'onya Mr Finch, 😀 not adding to our clutter takes discipline. When I first started dealing with one item a day, I found on occasion I was able to extend to two items or upgrade to "one in two out" without it being a burden. I did not have the physical or emotional energy to deal with too much in the one sitting.
