Report written by Sevan
Another mission with Ms C was on the agenda for Kash and Sevan today. They were curious about what the mission would involve as Ms C had asked for help to move furniture in the garden. Once inside, they found that Ms C had made excellent progress in tidying up her flat, with very little clutter in the living room and kitchen. She must have done a great job of giving away items she didn't need (or hiding them).
Bags of Ms C's clothes had been put in a shed in her garden while she was decluttering. Now it was time to bring the bags inside and sort through them, again, with the aim of giving away what she no longer needed. Kash and Sevan counted 30 laundry bags and there was no way to fit them all into Ms C's living room, so half of them were carried through the garden, into the house, ready to be sorted through.
With her top priority completed, Ms C had an important question for the GoodGymers:
"I left this box of eggs in my fridge. The one that isn't turned on"
"It was warm in there. Will some chicks hatch?" - Ms C
Sevan reassured Ms C that the eggs were sterilised and there was no way she'd have baby chickens running around her her flat or garden any time soon 🐣.
With that worry taken away, Ms C's next priority was to move items out of her bedroom, where everything was piled high. On cabinets, on the floor, on the bed. Stuff everywhere. Now that the shed was emptier, some of Ms C's belongings could move into the shed, making it easier to deal with everything else in the bedroom.
Ms C went back to her usual mode of wanting to keep everything, including an amusing bubble pooper, so Kash and Sevan spent most of the time shuffling things around, not removing them.
"There's a box of medication here" - Sevan
"Oh, they're great! Heart pills." - Ms C
"Are they expired though? They look quite old." - Kash
"It doesn't matter. You only get one heart." - Ms C
Kash and Sevan were thinking to themselves that that would be a good reason not to take expired drugs, but didn't want to argue the point.
Eventually 4 boxes and a shopping trolley were moved to the shed. The entrance to the room felt a lot more open, meaning it'll be easier to remove things when GoodGym next visits Ms C.
