Today is supposed to be the first day of Spring, hmm not here in the UK!  It has been raining all day again!  Yesterday was a little better and it did feel a bit like Spring but not today.  The rest of the week looks to be overcast and cold!  I think the sun has gone on holiday and forgotten about us!!!!!

I am busy planning my Spring Cleaning despite the weather but before that I intend to do a little decluttering.  You know what it’s like over the course of a year you collect things, thinking oh that will be of use and you store it in a cupboard or the attic or the garage and it then sits there and you never use it.  So that is the sort of decluttering I have in mind.  I also use it as an opportunity of going through all our books and getting rid of any I am defintely not going to read again.  We have a book exchange in our Village so some get donated there and some to the Charity shop.

My Instagram feed has been full of women cleaning various parts of their homes and I am in awe of their attention to detail.  I am sure it is because they are filming it for their Instagram feeds but still.  When I do the Spring Cleaning I am always pleased to note that our home is not as dirty as I think it is.  There are bits of fluff of course, usually from Miss Floof and a bit of dust but it is not too bad, which I think means I am doing an okay job each week. 

One major decluttering job is to sort out the attic and garage again.  We seem to do this every few years and then slowly it builds up again!  That is the plan for this year as well as decorating and trying to sort out the gardens.  I am really hoping that the weather is going to pick up.  My plan for next week is to start with the Kitchen. At the weekend we have one day available so I am going to sort out jobs which I need DH to help with, like moving furniture.  At the moment the forecast is rain all day so definitely inside jobs!  I think I am also going to pinch a few hours here and there to get small jobs done and ticked off my lists which at the moment is four pages long!!!!!

Wednesday today, middle of the week and it will soon be the weekend.  Hope you are having a good week. 

Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx

I have threatened to tie a duster to that tail so Coco can help.  She does not look impressed when I say it!!!!!
