We have lived in this house for 33 years, too long by far. We have decided to put the house on the market - once we have decluttered and had a really good sort out.
The three key areas are the loft, the garage and the shed.
We have spent 2 weekends clearing out the loft - one more should do it.
Today we had a dam good session in the garage.
The clearing out sessions have been accompanied by jon's fires!
The local charity shop is doing well as are many friends on Facebook where I post items on a regular basis.
Yes it is all very tiring yet cathartic.
Yesterday I had a moment when I came across a stash of cards I had sent mum over the years together with cards of sympathy from both mum and dad's passings. School reports, photographs, a whole episode of my life.
Tomorrow we are back to a normal routine with Jon being at the workshop and me supporting him. We have made "The Move" the big focus. We haven't been out on the motorbike or done any train spotting, telling ourselves we will have a good break when we move.
Watch this space - it would appear I am back!
