The beginning of something good

Today I started the wheels in motion. A change for the better in my life. I wouldn't go as far as to say I'm a hoarder but I do have a bad habit for keeping things just in case. You know, like I'll keep the boxes things come in just in case we move (from our stable home) or crafty things for if I ever feel creative. I also have a bad habit of accepting things from other people and then never actually using them.

The upheaval that has been set in motion by the epic roof leak of doom has meant that my house is in more chaos than it has been in a long time and there's no way I was going to put things back into the storage boxes (when they come off the loft) without first having checked I NEED to be keeping stuff.

I''d already been having a clear out of some household stuff before Christmas so now as it is mounting up as I let things go it's being photographed and offered to friends before giving it to the swapshop or charity.
