Well, what do you have in the cupboard under the stairs? I needed to find space to put back my vacuum cleaner and shopping trolley, which have lived in the dining room for a couple of years. Now I can't get into the dining room to get to them, so it's action stations.A new, bigger house would be a bonus, but unlikely unless I win the lottery. Anyway, I like the neighbours, and the area is so full of the necessaries for life - transport, shops, street market - that I would only move away to go to a country retreat. Plus the unresolved planning application would put potential buyers off.
I have tossed out several pieces of carpet, a cat play stand, and the lid of a long-broken cat litter tray. Two large tins of paint are going into the new shed, along with a dustpan and brush and a single-use barbecue.
Next stop the dining room. Then -gasp - the study!
How old is your house?
ReplyDeleteI had to move from a massive five bedroom, three living room, study... well you name it we had it, gorgeous house to a very tiny place and almost 30 years of accumulated memories had to go with it.... and I don't miss a thing.... well I miss the house and the husband.... but none of the accessories.
ReplyDeleteI dread to think what the cupboard under our stairs is like.I avoid it like the plague!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you managed to get the new shed up,btw.Another place I stay out of as much as possible,unless I feel like risking a broken neck.
