Ohh how I can relate!
I've been putting off organizing the attic. I just have soo many things there! (old art and art supplies too, books, clothes, old Granny's pots and pans...) And need to make it into a livable place again!
The tricky part is changing the purpose of the two rooms - one used to be a bedroom and the other a computer room, now it would be vice versa. Ahh!
Maybe just needed to vent!
What was really helpful before was Julie Morgenstern's book Organizing from the Inside Out. She speaks about finding a 'home' for everything. And that even if it seems cluttered, it may be organized, if you can actually find things (sometimes I couldn't lol).
I also have files and boxes of past interests... (I'm a scanner/multipotentialite - person with many interests!)
Yay for baby steps and doing what you can!! How has this gone, Transient?
