I hope I am not over my head. I started my minimizing of the papers yesterday and now I am trying to get the garage in order.
I felt energized after donating a whole bunch of stuff to a rummage sale at my church to help send the young girls on a learning camp.
The garage seemed to open up a bit and that gave me hope that I can actually tackle it. Before the donation, I couldn't move around in it much when the car is parked in there.
I used to keep the garage tidy due to my conducting of the scrapbooking workshops in there, but since I took a break from the workshops, my garage has become a dungeon and kept all of the stuff prisoners there.
My first area to attack is the toy shelves. You are looking at the plastic tubs that I have had for years. I stopped buying containers since mid 1990. I covered up the toy box fronts with some left over construction papers to hide the visual chaos in the boxes.

It is a bigger job than I have anticipate, so I will share the before pictures here and the afters when it is done (hopefully by this weekend).
