 @Punkin56  

Come and meet some of us that are also battling various levels of clutter - @Former-Member, @Shaz51 @Faith-and-Hope @utopia @Former-Member @1stepup61 @Smc @Appleblossom are just a few of the wonderful people who understand 😁. Earlier posts have a few more tips - at present we have been ramping up support for Lapses as she has sold her home but has also been caring for her Dad after her mum passed away - there was a lot of clutter at the family home too. 

Do post small victories too - even getting one thing a day sorted will make a difference long term.

Saturday I picked up three folders so I can get a few more papers filed. Today I gave away two office items no longer needed.

@Former-Member Thinking of you.  Sorry the family is triggering.

You really have had a lot to do, and mostly we have to get on do the work ourselves.  You will be the winner as you will have a clear idea of your finances and material stuff and be ready to settle somewhere when the time comes.

After reading that little convo I get how you are triggered by your brother @Former-Member

I get it - I don't know if my brother triggers me but he sure does ruffle my feathers - he doesn't need to practise is bad language but he does

Right now I am getting the afternoon drowsies - I am in a fantastic room at the airport in Melbourne - what a fantastic life this is - TV playing nice music behind me and wonderful view of Melbourne from here - I can see right round from Arthur's Seat out in Port Phillip Bay to the mountains north of the city - and I can see the city - I would love to take this view home with me

Anyway - I was rushed this morning - I always think I won't get done in time but I always make it - at the last minute - my taxi was a bit early but he waited for 5 minutes and then I just about left with a few items I had in another bag when I went out this morning

And it is amazing how other people can use up our time - like your son - how often have you wanted - needed - wished - you could talk with him but he hasn't had the time - and when you are short of time -- he wants to talk

I have to lie down on this wonderful king-sized bed with the huge TV screen and have a snack - it's still a while before the dining room opens - I bet I sleep though - after all the rush I am really   D R O W S I E  ZZZZzzzzz

@NatalieS

Are you decluttering too?

[utopia]

I mowed a bit of the backyard. Over the weeds. Not exactly decluttering - but it's one chore that I've almost completed. And the yard is looking so tidy.

[Smc]

I decluttered some partial bags of flour and sugar, two eggs, some butter, a couple of pears and some cocoa from the pantry and turned them into a chocolate brownie slice... does that count?

Lost another big post 😞
Its lovely yo see you all here.
I found found someone who'll take my piano. Was so nice the see the joy on their face when they realised it was in reasonable good condition, only 20 years old. A godly family with two kidz. They'll bring trailer and birlie blocks to help tomorrow. But

Its sad to let my piano go. Keeping it in a storage shed indefinately would probably just ruine it just ruin it.

Also today, bro2 sent another denigrating email to Guardianship hearing for tomorrow. Targeting my mental health history (breakdowns).

You know, IT REALLY HURTS TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE MY BROTHER PULL ME BACK TO SOMETHING I'VE WORKED SO HARD TO OVERCOME. All the parasuides... Paralyzing depression. I've come so far - wish they could see it. Hurts that my family can't.

😞 gonna go have another cry...

@Former-Member that like was to say I hear you and here for you.
