Excuse my Yoda-sounding title but pleased am I after completing my second mission. Last Sunday I cycled 25 minutes one way to my mission and today I did 45 minutes cycling one way on my trusted hand-me-up steed (my son passed it to me after he got himself an e-bike!)

Miss S' friend Miss T needed an extra pair of hands and arms in case there was stuff that was too heavy for her to move but, honestly, what she really needed was moral support for this decluttering task to help her friend and neighbour! The two of us got down to it and within no time had the floor out from under the mass of stuff in plain sight! That done, Miss T set Miss S on task to sift through clothes, papers and other sundries and decide what she wanted to keep and what she wanted to bin with the clear directive "Be brutal!" And while Miss S was doing her bit, the two of us took whole load of "useless" stuff down to the ground floor to deposit in the recycling bins outside the building. With that, job done and two sweet ladies left feeling happy and grateful! 😊
