It has been awhile since I started this thread and forgot it was here. My clutter continues to be basicaly everywhere.

Since I live alone and dont for the most part have company, seems like my clutter just revolves around my two main 'stations' as I guess I could call them.

I have the dining room table which is now my home office/writing/eating/overflowed with so many different things that just do not belong here. Like as I look around the table, I see the remote to the tv. a single serve box of cereal, a dirty fork, a hat, folders and magazines piled high. 4 ashtrays, and all sorts of other stuff.

So recently I took it all to a entire new level. I have no (6) 10quart plastic dishpans to help with moving things form one place to another and for cleaning up underneath them as far as making it easier to move and stack without loose objects falling to the floor just my barely touching them.

This is where the fact that recently diagnosed with OCD it makes it much more difficult to control the clutter as I am not wanting to throw anything away. It simply builds up. When I do 'work' on my area I can spend hours moving things around into there own dishpans, crates, 3 shelf cart, tray table, the pass through behind me into the kitchen. It makes no difference. I end up with nothing accomplished other than finding things I had forgotten I even had.

I just try not to let it consume me any more only I fear the Maitn. Man will come in for preventative Maint. and freak out.

No I guess I am now only concentrating on keeping the apartment 'sanitary' as far as dirty dishes and keeping the bathroom clean and trash taken out.

So just really small steps into being organized, as I could organize everything then go and look for something and the entire thing would be dust. lol to sum it up I am one of those people who pack up a box of 'junk' to put in the hall closet only to end up removing a box at the same time to 'look through' which most likely has more stuff in it than the one I am trying to put into the closet and thus this box ends up in circulation.
