{#JanuaryJoy - clear out}


It's the last Florence Finds #JanuaryJoy prompt, which is 'clear out'.

Over the last few years I've minimised my clothing & accessories and successfully completed Project 333; I've decluttered the house (including the kids toys and my kitchen) because last year I moved from a sizeable 5 bedroom mid-terrace property into a more reasonable 3 bedroom semi and in the process I've sold a number of pieces of furniture on Gumtree and still have a few more things to clear out. I also gave a number of boxes of 'stuff' to my dad's wife Jo who has taken everything to a car boot sale for me.

I actually don't think there's much more for me to clear! Yay!!

One thing I know I need to work on is my digital hoarding... I have so many photographs it's unreal and I could be done with spending some time to ditch the rubbish ones and organise the good ones. *Adds digital decluttering to the to-do-list.

So, that's it... I hope you've enjoyed reading my #JanuaryJoy posts. I've certainly enjoyed writing them.

Can you believe it's nearly February already!!!??!!

{Meal Planning Monday}


Here is a very quick post for Mrs M's Meal Planning Monday...

Meal Planning Monday

I'm so busy right now trying to get my house ready for going on the market. I've spent the whole of this evening painting and cleaning!! The agent is coming on Thursday to photograph the house and the home report is also being done on Thursday - no pressure!!

Anyway, here's the meal plan for this week:

Monday (just me) - I had chicken salad

Tuesday (just me) - chicken salad again - leftovers from tonight

Wednesday - baked potatoes with beans and cheese

Thursday - might try cooking a ham in the slow cooker! Ham, roast potatoes & veg

Friday - stir fried rice with ham (leftovers from Thurs) and veg (peas, pepper, mushroom)

Saturday - take out (having friends over!)

Sunday (just me) - something low fat... maybe a grilled chicken kebab?  

If you're interested...here's how the house is looking at the minute... I'm getting there and I'm confident that by Thursday I'll be ready!

What was the dining room... now a tidy playroom!

My kitchen, which I now love! I'll be sad to say goodbye :-(
