Okay, I've got the nail.

So my clothes are organized (minus the 42 gallon trash bag of clothes.) I now fill only my dresser and half my closet space. It used to be: Stuffed dresser, leaning tower of clothes on the dresser, miserable pile of clothes on the dryer, can't get clothes out of the closet without some falling out from the pressure, and exploding laundry basket. I literally couldn't have all of my clothes washed at the same time because there would be no place to put them. I would dress out of laundry baskets when this strange and bizarre situation occured.

Since this post is so distant from when I started this, I just want you to know - I have been doing other things. I just haven't settled on my horse shoe yet.

I did start in the bedroom - but have about another half day to get that finished.
I did start in the living room - but there are several projects in there that will take time.
I did start in the kitchen - but you know how that goes, there's never a completely clean kitchen for longer than the time until your next meal. And of course I'm kitchen-handicapped.

The highlights:
Did finally get the pictures up I'd been planning on in the bedroom for more than four years. (And promptly broke the glass in one frame.)
I did get a new couch (loveseat) and FINALLY saw the removal of the hideabed. The new layout in the living room is smaller, but works pretty well.
I did move books from other rooms (not completely done with this) and got them into the bookcases.

There are a million more things to do, so it's hard to feel triumphant about these things.

I really have to choose a horse shoe...

you're making me feel guilty - I took stuff out of my closets but now I still have all the black garbage bags laying around. And it's been so long, I've forgotten which were going to good will, which were useless and going to the trash or craigslist/freebies....
