Hey, I want to join the 'buy organizing stuff and never use it club'!

Could this be related to the moon or something? I have been in the 'it's so messy, what's the point of trying' phase for a bit.

I did some dishes this morning, finally. I have the entire couch covered with laundry - I had to bring in the mothball stored stuff that I'd hung out due to rain, but I can't put it away because it still stinks - and now all the other clean laundry that was on the couch also stinks.

I threw out an unopened box of 300 plastic utensils I bought for a party I had SIX YEARS AGO. I would love to toss more stuff from the basement. I also reorganized some stuff in my backroom so that it is easier to get to.

My main problem is that I have way too much stuff for my space and I am unwilling to give it up. I have over 30 cashmere sweaters. Why? The majority of them have moth holes and I still keep them. Why? Yeah, they are warm, but I can't wear them in public without looking like a slob (and I do wear them in public). My dining room smells like a urinal because all these mothball sweaters are piled up on the couch. If I had just thrown most of them out years ago, maybe I could have taken better care of the others so the moths stayed away, who knows?

Sorry, I am really discouraged this week with everything.
