Little steps are all that is happening this week, as it has been a very busy week.
But that said, lots of little things are maing a difference.
Like, DH had to take an afternoon off yesterday for the gasman, but it means our boiler is now serviced and working at 97% efficiency. And he also got the bathrooms cleaned and laundry folded while he was home (I really lucked out with him!).
And because we had the visitors, we did a lot of clearing of things in the guest room, and there is now a new shelf up there too.
I am decluttering a lot too - I have a large bag of hockey goalkeeping gear (it's field hockey - but the keeper gets padded up like a regular player in ice-hockey so it's a LARGE bag) in the attic. This is going to my old school tomorrow when we head down home, as I have retired from hockey (I got too old and my reflexes were too slow) a couple of years now, and I really don't see myself needing it again. But it was too expensive to just throw away and I wanted it to go where it would get well used (and my old club has good funds for its players - and as I had to buy it myself - almost €1,000 over 3 years or so, I didn't feel a loyalty to have to give it to them).
The kitchen cupboards are also getting a small look - I cleared off a portion of the top of a cupboard (the deadspace of about 18 inches between the cupboard top and ceiling that I use for "hidden" storage behind the moulding) too - we aer now using the last packet of cereal from there, and I have also taken about 4 packets of dried fruit down too as I'd used so many recently (different types but all the jars needed refilling).
We are having a well-deserved weekend off this weekend and I am intending on not getting much to bring back with us. We are not going to the farmer's market. I may buy some wool if I bring a couple of patterns with me - but only for specific projects. But the weekend is about relaxing entirely - so there may be a couple of magazines or a new book (or perhaps a knitting project if I can find the pattern that I was considering for myself LOL!).
