My possessions have gotten the best of me. Took a chunk of the day to make my stuff more manageable with the intent to be able to find that elusive what I need when I need it. First, some zones. My downstairs desk, a simple secretary style fold-up forced to fold-down. All papers off. Then file labels and folders. Still some categories to go but I can use the desk.
Then the shelf behind my bed, my half of the bed. Got a Sam Adams empty beer box, put everything in it to overflowing. Toted it to my desk. Separated pens, coins, medicines, things that already had a defined home someplace else. Once done, I got a second empty k-cup box. My stuff not yet assigned a home into Sam Adams, wife's stuff into K-cup. Far more is mine.
Winter clothing now in vacuum bag. Found mini-vacuum. Unfortunately, unable to seal that bag, so it may need replacement before vacuuming.
Harvested shoes that I will not be wearing again for a while. Put trees in two pair. Put the others in a laundry basket, then transfer to closet in a clear bag.
Not yet where I can really find what I need when I need it. But a whole lot better than it was.
