Spring clean
What do you do when first arriving back after a 3mth holiday abroard? You decide to spring clean the house of course!! And I don't mean a flit around the place with a feather duster, I mean pull everything out of the cupboards & wash them out, sort through all the stuff & get rid of anything you haven't used in the last 2 years & rearrange the rest back into the cupboards. Well after going hard at it for 3 days (with a bit of retail therapy inbetween to buy a cot, grocery supplies etc) we have managed to finish the kitchen. Unfortunately we are running out of steam so it remains to be seen how much more of the house will get done & how thoroughly.

Moving house is great motivation for sorting through stuff and getting rid of unused/unwanted stuff. Especially if you move into a house that is slightly smaller and has less storage space!
ReplyDeleteMoving regularly also helps with this (we have lived in 5 units/houses in the 7 years we have been married - averages out at about 1yr 4 months per place), as it isn't a huge task any one time, there is just a few bits here and a few bits that you need to get rid of - either in the bin or to sell online. It can be a great little money maker.
