Weekly Vlog # 315: Decluttering & Organizing | Shopping Haul

Hi everyone
welcome back to another slice of my weekly waffling, I hope you've
all had a good week. If its your first time stopping by the channel, thank you
and you are most welcome!
I've had way too many problems with the new phone and the camera footage. I'm hoping I've been able to sort it out by next week's vlog otherwise I'm considering going back to my old phone. Its kind of taken the fun out of vlogging to be honest :(
Anyway I did film a bit of waffling for you. My new cleaning lady is spurring me on to get the house organized, it was great to clear out a load of clothing from my wardrobe this week. Next big job is my ridiculous shoe collection.. but thats for another week!
William and I had a little mooch around the shops on Friday, its been so lovely having a few days alone with the boys and catching up on a one to one basis. Of course there was shopping involved which I'll share with you. A disaster with the plum wine I was soooo looking forward to, I left it in the freezer for too long and it exploded!!
Thanks again for tuning in much love to you all, take care.
Dawn xx

I love your positive vibe, Dawn! 😊It's great that you're finding ways to stay organized despite the phone troubles-can't wait to see what you do with the shoe collection!

What a lovely catch up Dawn and lovely to see William. I absolutely love that shop 😘 xx

I loved the shop you were in near the end - what a treasure trove! Sorry that you’re having camera issues and hope it’s soon sorted out! x

[@debbiestuckey6599]

Lovely to see you!! Have a great week, Dawn! I cast on a Ruth shawl yesterday for her KAL.

Hello lovely Dawn ☀️ It’s always good to have a clear out isn’t it? Very cleansing for the soul. I have a lovely view of a steam train station from my bedroom window, here in my little Cotswolds village. I love the train whistles, the steam clouds and the traditional train noises, very nostalgic! It’s supposed to reach the giddy heights of over 30 degrees this week here, hope you get some sunshine where you are too. Take care 🌸🌼💕

It sounds idyllic x

[@DawnsDays]

I love steam trains, something very comforting about them 😂 we've had a lovely sunny day today finally 🎉🎉 of course we had to go on the boat 😂❤

Hi dawn …. Made me laugh how you had to buy William crease protectors for his new trainers, when we were young I remember how we made them look worn and grubby as it wasn’t “cool” to have pristine clean/ new looking trainers… how time has changed! Loved your haul .. just like to say how much you suit red , the T-shirt you wore at the beginning of the vlog looked lovely x

[@DawnsDays]

It's so ridiculous. When he tried them on in the store, I asked him if they hurt his feet because he was walking like a penguin 😂 all because he didn't want a crease 😂😂😂😂😘

[@moragguthrie8930]

Nice catch up again. Loved your shopping haul. Boys are not cheap! 😂. Glad you worked out the technicalities of downloading/uploading. Hope not too much swearing involved 😂😂. Have a good week x

[@DawnsDays]

I can not divulge that information, but feel free to make your own mind up 😂😂😂😘

Wow - I am up way past my usual bed time trying to get a princess sole to work on the socks I’m making. Suddenly I see that I am the second person to watch this episode. That must be some sort of record! Nice to see William a bit. Have a nice Sunday. See you next week. Salam wa sa’aadah

[@DawnsDays]

Yay 🎉🎉🎉 I hope you figured it out, I'm going to Google it 🤣😘😘

[@lindashields5939]

The finished socks worked out just fine - although when they came off the needles they looked like crumpled pretzels! My friend, apparently, has very sensitive soles and, especially on thinner socks, she is bothered by the “bumps” on the inside of the sock. A “princess sole” is just made by purling the bottom of the sock stitches so that the “bumps” are on the outside. I had to think about doing that on the heel turn, and the bottom of the toe so it was a bit of mind juggling. It took a while to get used to doing it. The end result - on the feet - they worked out very well. My friend says that it is actually a noticeable difference. Yeah!

Hi Dawn, this is my third attempt at posting, I keep losing my message!! I have regular clear outs but half the stuff ends up going back into my wardrobe - George's goes straight in the charity bags or the bin - no second chances for his stuff 🤣. It was nice to see William, he's grown into a fine young man - but the crease protectors made me smile. I could do with an IT expert, George can't even send a text! The craft shop looked amazing - too tempting by far xx

[@DawnsDays]

Lol Maureen you make me laugh 😂 imagine George decluttering your craft stuff and sending it to the charity shop 🤣🤣🤣😘❤

[@janescarisbrick6986]

Hello again. Lovely catch up and we see William. If anyone looked in my bathroom cabinet they would think we had a baby. Sudocreme, baby wipes, baby shampoo and baby oil which came in useful for me this week. I had my second cataract surgery and have to wear an eye patch for a few nights. The sticky tape to attach it is super sticky but baby oil soon gets it all off. Enjoy your week. I hope your weather is as nice as here and you get out on your boat xx

[@maureenkillen1503]

Hope you get on well x
