More de-cluttering achieved today...

(before)
This cupboard has been jam packed full of stuff since we built the house and moved in 6.5 years ago...

Ta Dah! I am really pleased with my efforts - there was quite a bit of crap in there which I have transferred to some stacker boxes (school bits and pieces from both girls - I have a large yellow envelope for each year they were at school).

This... I think... is a Redback spider (I didn't get close, hence the blurry zoomed in picture and I can't quite see any red on its back but....its the right shape!)!!! It was living quite comfortably in the cupboard and got quite aggressive when I disturbed it. It had built a web in a scrapbook of Kirby's baby/birthday cards. What do you do with 20 years (and 17 years respectively) of birthday cards for your children - I have each and every one of them!! The poor widdle 'pider met its maker when I sprayed it with bug spray then vacuumed it up! Hasta lavista, baby! Ha, ha!

Another picture for the "shame file" - a crunchy dead cricket, entangled in spider webs! Aaargh!

Its been a very long day and it took a lot of time to pull everything out, evaluate its future existence then put it all back in again...

Oh, the nostalgia! I found a container full of old cassette tapes - my kids don't even know what these are!!! Look - ABBA, ONJ!, Kenny & Dolly - good times! :)

The other side of the built in - this is the library side (I do not have a book shelf in my home!).

(after)
That's much better - everything is easy to see and reachable. I wonder how long it will stay this way???

Enjoying a glass of red now, with my feet up -
