I was wondering if anyone else has a chaotic cupboard.

I have been sorting mine out and have found stuff I don’t use.

What is in your chaotic cupboard and will it be tidied?

It has taken eight years to start to make sense of my kitchen, then onto the rest of the house.

Don't tidy. Spend your tdoing something that will bring you happiness. Life is too short, as we all know, to worry about our cupboard.

All my cupboards are messy, I was finding the decision making involved in clearing out stuff really quite difficult. But recently I've had significant success clearing out shoes, and also my bookshelf ( with some help from a friend) so I think I've had a sneaky cognitive gain this year! 👍

A picture would do it, but I am too ashamed, I think, to take one. My piles are of all kinds - books, pictures, half written articles, unfinished bits of embroidery work and knitting, cut out but not sewn, and therefore the wrong size skirts. Not to mention clothes spanning 3 sizes and coats shoes and even a few hats. Unfinished books on kindle. Huh. Must clear. When I feel a little less tired. You are far from alone. My larder is another story as well - though I cannot top the 1996 out of date item in the baking hoard. Mine is at most 2004 - still nearly 20 years. You made me write it all down, bonfire - I might get going again. Slowly.

hi WOS you are not alone.

I am wondering what everyone’s kitchen is like this morning.

Has anyone done their washing up?

Or cleaned their hob?

Mine is encrusted.

If you don’t mind me asking, what are your articles about WOS?

You sound very creative
