Re: Decluttering and home maintenance
Sounds good for your son @Smc
I had my son make a couple of decisions about his stuff in my garage. Gently Gently.
DOnt need it spotless ... proud of me. I booked a hard rubbish collection and will throw some things out ... phew ....
@Shaz51Hope you have not taken on too much.
Take Care of YOU as well as everybody and everything else.
Sort through those things with doc ... maybe ... maybe clarity and action will help reduce anxiety. SO hard. SIgh ...

Re: Decluttering and home maintenance
A few items of clothing went to the op shop this week via a friend who volunteers.

Re: Decluttering and home maintenance
Hmmmm.... thinks we need a more COVID-friendly list @Former-Member? I know that we've had no chance to use the "theatre tickets of our choice" gift that our son gave us last year.. what theatre?? 😛
Consumables still work... classes are mostly online at the moment... experience destinations are largely closed... the memories ideas are still do-able, and some of the time ideas.
In some ways, I think the best clutter-buster gift I could get is some free time and mental space to raid my too-big craft materials stash, and turn it into the things I actually want to have. So far, that's proving to be an elusive goal. But on a more positive note, I guess I have been fairly successful of late with doing a "seed stash-buster blitz", and all being well, the garden and the dinner table will thank me for that over the next few months. 🙂 Craft materials are bulkier than seed packets, but I guess the process for getting that stash-bust underway is essentially the same... something to muse on.

Re: Decluttering and home maintenance
Mr Darcy's brother had been visiting and bless him, some tap washers have been replaced on older fittings that I hadn't had experience with, we ended up needing to replace the tap heads in the bathroom and a tap in the laundry that I had not been game to use since we moved in as it was turned off too tight. Bro battened down a corner of patio roof sheeting that had lifted with some recent strong winds and also gave hand in the garden.
