I am lucky in that my friend, Chris, rarely fills her bin and is quite happy for me to pop any additional bags of rubbish in their bin, should it be needed. xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-59537298564169683292022-11-26T02:48:23.403+00:002022-11-26T02:48:23.403+00:00Well done on the sorting!

I was going to tackle a cupboard that I know has some just out and out rubbish in it, but our bin didn't get picked up last week (due to weather) and even though the roads have been good this week, the bin people haven't emptied it still and when husband rang them they said it wouldn't be until Saturday! The recycle is already a week behind schedule and completely full. They missed their pick-up too and as that one is only every two weeks I suppose it will be another week before we see that one emptied!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03039174572211086359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-27316107103883539682022-11-25T06:24:03.445+00:002022-11-25T06:24:03.445+00:00I'm striking while the iron is hot - the motiv...I'm striking while the iron is hot - the motivation will go and I'll be back to my usual, somewhat indolent, way! :-)<br />Time most certainly is not a constant, whatever anyone says!<br />xxJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-78021097908303100572022-11-24T22:45:30.455+00:002022-11-24T22:45:30.455+00:00The older I get; the faster time seems to move.

Some is new and will be sold on as fabric and the rest made into bags which sell for £1 to save on plastic. Hope this publishes today!

Gosh you are so organised but isn't it a good feeling going through cupboards and drawers and finding things you no longer need or things that had forgotten you had.
