Today I decluttered my craft room, I have way too much stuff that I haven't used in years. I put over 100 embellishments, stamps, papers etc on gumtree for free and it turns out that the lady that picked it up volunteers at a not profit children's centre. At the end of the day I didn't care who had it as long as it was out of my house but it was nice to know that some children will enjoy it.  :)

That was wonderful Mich. It would make you feel especially good.
I did the ironing this morning ( 2 weeks worth + Canberra clothes).

How many rooms do you have left to declutter now Michele?  Love your new avatar.

I had a bone density scan today, great result again.

Too many JD. But getting there. Good that you went for a bone density test.  :D

I have spent the morning cleaning the pantry and the moths that were hiding there. I have washed everything that was washable and have to put it all back now and then I must be ready for a rest.

What a horrible job troupie, nice to have it all done now.

I joined my Mum for a special St Patrick's day lunch in her retirement village today.  It was a great meal of Guinness Pie, cauli -au -gratin, green & yellow beans plus potato & sweet potato mash followed by Bailey's mousse.  Not bad for $8. Only thing missing was a glass of wine LOL.

Sounds like a nice day Judy and great news about the tests.  Love it when they come back good.  ;D

Today I made plane reserverations for our holiday to Melbz for a couple of weeks in July.  Needed to book fares from where we live to Adelaide then on to Melb, plus the shuttle bus to our Hotel in St Kilda.  Accommodation was booked and paid for in January (saving $900) so now it's all done and just need to save for our spending money.  Love Melbourne in winter (and am feeling excited).  ;D

Good news On your test Judy.
Troupie my pantry is an absolute mess at the moment, but funnily enough I know what I have and where it is much to DH's amusement.
If I had moths I would feel compelled to do it, but after the last time, I have anything that looks yummy for moths sealed in a container.
Good on ta Michelle, lucky enough to give your craft away to someone more needy.
I am half way through sorting unwanted fabric, hoping to find a charity sewers group....I haven't forgotten you Troupie.

Fabric would be hard to get rid of. We all have our something that is hard for us to get rid of.

Today DH and I washed, polished and vacuumed the cars. Well I vacuumed and DH washed and polished. As soon as I went to the post office it rained so I had to re chamios it.  ;D I always go through the car wash once a week and vac it every other week but it's not as good as a hand wash and I love a clean car.  :D

Mich I feel inadequate. You de-clutter regularly and you wash your car regularly. If you are giving away energy, please send me some!

The Crows aren't playing in Melb when we are there.  Saying that tho, it's quite possible we may go to a game anyway as we've never been in Melb.  Just depends on what is happening at the time.
 
I would really love to be a part of the audience of the AFL Footy Show on either of the 2 Thursdays we are there, but can't find any information of how to get tickets for while we are there.  Will keep looking of course but I won't hold my breath.  :P
