slackmax, I think you are doing a great job, and am cheering you on from across the internet with every success you post.
I've started to "turn out" my spare bedroom. I've got two bags of clothes and shoes for the charity shop, a bag of fabric for recycling and a bag of waste. More work still to do, but after that room all that is left is the excess paperwork in the study.
I had inherited a drawerful of silk scarves which I never wear but some of which I've managed to sell at the W.I. and the rest of which, along with the proceeds of sale, will go to the local women's refuge for Christmas.
