Decluttering!

[ailbhe]

We're decluttering madly. We have things to give away and things to sell, though the selling will take a wee while because it's more effort. The storage unit is now empty and the spare room is emptying and we've created more space in the attic. I expect us to put the insulation up this summer, really I do, and that will be wonderful.

Today was a big laundry day - two loads of towels, lots of bedding - and an all-over houseclean, too. Emer is a crawling whizz and leans nonchalantly upright, one hand against the doorjamb (sp?), the other flapping excitedly in conversation. I think she can cruise the length of the sofa.

My hopes of a late walker may be dashed, but I'm sure I'll cope somehow.

Tomorrow is food day, which is good, because we're running low on decent food. And I need to make sure we're on top of the laundry so that we can pack on Thursday. Shouldn't be too hard; worst case is spending a lot of time at the laundrette.

Please may I have my copy of The Marlows and the Traitor back? We had a big reorganisation of bookshelves and there is a space waiting for it...

Address is:

7 Bagshawe Avenue
Chapel-en-le-Frith
High Peak
Derbyshire
SK23 9SE

Thank you.

It's in a bubblewrap envelope with the address on it - as soon as I leave the house it will be posted.

I couldn't find it for ages because, er, it was already in the envelope but *not* addressed. I am sorry.

That's lovely, thank you. And not to worry, I never expect books to find their way home too quickly. It just seemed timely if you are organising.

I've actually addressed it to Nicola P because I couldn't find the email with your full name and I *knew* that if I left it another day you'd never get it back until I died and the executor of my will was going through everything in the house one item at a time...
