At home I am traditionally a procrastinater – leaving things till the last minute, not doing today what I can put off until tomorrow. I have been stock piling my clothes in the spare bedroom at home – never getting around to sorting them and discarding the old. My spare room is a disaster! Yesterday, I started on a big clean out (early spring cleaning) Emptying cupboards, wardrobes, ironing baskets etc. and sorting and storing the items I am keeping. I am about half way through the task. I have put a plan in place to spend some time on two nights this week completing the task. My partner has been enlisted to deliver discarded clothes to the Salvation Army – so by the end of this week the task will be done and my wardrobe sorted and organized. Then on the weekend – I can go shopping!!!
