Cleaning the basement is extremely overwhelming. It feels like 75% of the crap down here is my boyfriend's junk. There is so much scrap wood. Everything is piled precariously and it's really heavy and tall so I can't move it.

What I can clean up is little stuff that makes no difference at all, like cans of paint. I have been trying to get him to help me clean this up for years, but he just tells me to throw out my own stuff and leave his alone. Now that I am actually down here, it is just about all his stuff.
