I am nibbling away at the sofa, I want to get this and, ideally, the blanket box upstairs cleared before July, this means NOT sleeping in until 18.00 hours (damned pain!), I should really have taken a before shot of the sofa on Monday 5th June but I was too embarrassed! Still I will take one now (Saturday 10th June) and will post it on here (see above!). I need to get some more done on this, also work on the bedroom (including clothes) and err the house in general!
What I have managed to get done is some cross stitch :-
Day 1 (Tuesday 14th June)
and day 2 (Wednesday 15th June))
By the end of the weekend I would like to have this finished, more clearing done, more tracking photos done, and to have found my knitting needles! If I lose weight again this week I would like to start knitting a tote bag (which will have the added benefit of clearing more from the sofa!)

Okay on a Facebook group I belong too we are doing this on the run up to Yule, my plan is to get one thing (at least) a day into the correct place (be that another room, the charity shop or the bin etc!), ideally I would also like to get back to crafting as well, but the main focus is to free up some space.
This is the tip at the end of the bed, the red items have been put away and the white bag got rid of.
This is the sofa and erk! just Erk!
This is the side of me when sat at the computer, the loose papers have been shredded, hopefully we should be able to get rid of the large box before too much longer!

As you can tell my Get Up And Go for the year decided not to even arrive! It looks as though I will finish the reading challenges but everything else will go by the board and will be the basis for (a hopefully better) 2121 list.
Meanwhile I am trying to clear the space around me (sofa, desk, cabinet top) so that at least the main room looks more lived in the less tornado!

The lounge is still a tip!!
But I am nibbling away at that and more to the point I am also nibbling away at my annual To Be Done list!

Tomorrow I will work on the patchwork tote AND this weekend I hope to knock out the other reading challenge - so as I say nibble, nibble!
Every day in November I would like to do something in each of these categories
Health
Wellbeing
Crafting
Reading
Clearing
Within this ideally I would like to:-
Finish 4 knitted sampler squares
Wind yarn ready for January
Finish patchwork tote
Finish next section of shawlette
Stitch the Jelly Roll strips together
Sort sofa
Sort desk
Lose some weight!

At long last I have finished some crafting and got some (a very small amount!) of tidying done!
Next stage clearing/tidying wise is the top of the blanket box upstairs, the sofa and my desk. Crafting, well I hoped to do some cross stitch this week BUT having finished the green mat off with hand sewing I think I will knit instead - probably the sampler squares, this all means that my list for the year looks like this ...

As people can see still lots to do! but I really hope to start getting some more of these done and soon!
Okay the first three things are coming along, #18 is done, the rest .... well the least said about the rest the better! It looks like the last 5 months will be seriously busy!
