My resignation letter has been accepted...
 Now I hope my stress level can come down from from circling the moon!
Now time to declutter.
First up was to sort out all my craft magazines.
Another magazine arrived in the post.
Now for lunch.
I pan fried some turkey steaks, then cooked them in red wine.
They were put into the oven for later.
I put the linguine in the saucepan too.
Back to decluttering!
Sorted out all the wicker draws in the Living room.

Quick tea at 3.
I have freed up so much room now.
I have some more craft magazines coming over the next few days to fill that space I made!
My son practiced making his dessert he is making for GCSE food exam next week.
He is trying out his recipe today.
On Friday he will try our Mary Berry's recipe.
The recycling bin is full of paper I found why I was decluttering.
