To throw away items which may be not quite empty seems to be a struggle for me but was able to discard empty and out of date or never used items. Added suncream as I will use it daily if in plain sight. A thorough clean too.

This is not a daily diary or declutter on a daily basis so a title change is in order but March as the beginning of Spring is still a good month to re organise, clean and remove clutter!


The fridge before  removing vegetables and fruit no longer edible and jars of jam and sauce which had lurked at the back and were way out of date. A good clean also as much needed.

Daily Decutter diary

Day two
Just joined a knitting club , knitting for charity sales and was able to donate the patterned squares my daughter and I knitted with the aim of making a blanket. Sadly our initial enthusiasm waned, not helped by the fact that our knitting gages were very different. They were gratefully received by organiser Bobby and I enjoyed my first group knitting experience and the opportunity to try new small projects and use some of my wool stash.

Daily declutter diary

Day one

Adult children often have a multitude of childhood possessions in their parents house even after they have moved out for several years so on her last visit my daughter and I made a start on her room by sorting her bookcase for books she no longer wanted. The result was two boxes which have now been dispatched to a local charity shop and a bookcase now only one quarter full.
