Ok, perhaps not quite like a feather...but I'm getting there lol It's been a rough week...I can't begin to tell you how many hours I've spent on Right Move, looking for a rental property to move into.

Gently Does It
Another hectic weekend, but also a productive one. I now have another 5 black sacks and 2 large boxes ready to go to a charity shop. I'm finding this whole downsizing thing hard, bloody hard and I havent even started on the loft *gulps* I've figured out that I need to go through an area… Continue reading Gently Does It
Putting Things Off
My Nan always used to say "Don't put something off til tomorrow, if you can do it today." She was big on sayings...I just used to roll my eyes lol. Yesterday I opened the first of my two "china" cabinets and stared at the contents. The plan was to pack up all the stuff I… Continue reading Putting Things Off
Being Enough
I was having a bit of a CBA day yesterday (can't be arsed). Which was funny as the #teamtomm podcast was on that exact topic. Yesterday was kitchen day (on the #teamtomm schedule), but as I'd already given it a once over on Wednesday morning (we had a house viewing) all that needed doing was… Continue reading Being Enough
Colours
Yesterday (as part of my #lessisnow challenge) I decided to sort through my pens. Woah...I didn't realise I had so many. I don't think I'll have to buy another one for years lol. I threw out (actually they're in a bag to go to the charity shop) over 150 pens, most of which were Biro's,… Continue reading Colours
The Power of Change
When we moved into this house we had a spare room downstairs. It was always going to be the library (I always wanted a library lol). I even bought two 7 foot bookcases at an auction in London four years ago to house my large collection of books (what can I say, books are my… Continue reading The Power of Change
My First Week With Less Stuff
Yesterday marked my first complete week of the #lessisnow challenge. I thought I'd start upstairs and work my way down, so the spare room is done and I'm now tackling my bedroom. I thought it would be really hard. As I said before, I'm a bit of a hoarder lol...but I can't even begin to… Continue reading My First Week With Less Stuff

Less Is Now
In my pursuit of "downsize the most painless way possible" and to take my mind off my eye infection, I found myself watching this on Netflix yesterday... https://youtu.be/jn-xbOCZOiQ How comes I'd never heard of these guys before? They have books...a Podcast (I've subscribed lol)...Website...Ted Talks...FaceBook...Instagram...you name it! But watching this film/documentary was so inspiring. I… Continue reading Less Is Now
