Quiet Sunday of a Hoarder

I can't think of a better way to spend a lazy Sunday morning.

After a disturbed night, Katie snuggles are exactly what are needed. 

I found a photo of Katie in the moses basket at 3 weeks of age, unfortunately, it waasn't a full length shot, but it certainly gives a good comparison for her growth.

The whole afternoon was spent emptying one of our hoarder's paradises - the summer house.  I so want to get it straightened up so the boys can use it as a den, ideally putting one of the front room sofas in it.  Got as far as emptying about 3/4 of it, just leaving a pile of carpets and camping accessories to move.  Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to take a miracle to succeed.  How can it be so difficult to get rid of stuff?  I've got rid of loads of the boys' old and broken toys but they've so many books and I really can't just throw them out, although I have thrown out all the old videos. On top of that, there's James' keyboard, all the painting, electrical and tiling bits and old paperwork that still needs to be kept.  It really has been a very soul destroying experience so far!  On the positive, Si's done an amazing job painting the fence and it looks good enough now to last another couple of years.

Had to stop emptying the summer house as I had a really horrible headache - but it's meant I've left a really bad headache in the garden waiting for me tomorrow!
