My mother used to make a thing of clearing everything before the new year, dealing with correspondence, bill paying, clearing the washing and ironing, hoovering and tidying. I suppose making a fresh start to the new year.
I feel the same urge to “clear the decks”
Anybody else?

I always start the new year with the flat just as it will be all year.
A mess!

Every year my NY resolution is to get rid of junk.
It is all still here.

This year?

I seem to be holding back a tidal wave of clutter and mess since a certain someone came here to live.
I'm buckling under lost socks, chewed up gum, football boots, kits, and all the mud that goes with it..

Yeah, maybe this year! grin

I'm a twelfth nighter too. It will look so bare when everything is taken down. After that the cleaning frenzy.
