Nicole Spill's Disorganization Disaster

 
I don't just have one room, but all of them in my small downtown apartment are a disaster. Since I can only pick one room, I want to say that I need help most with my entire living room, specifically my dining and office section. I just cannot seem to get around to tackling it. My biggest problem is procrastination combined with the fact I am a total pack rat! Everything surrounding me is my life...everything that I have ever held onto since I was about 14...wow! I have a very hard time with letting go of "stuff". I have boxes and containers full of papers, photos, binders, old school notes, and then I have more paperwork on top of those boxes and containers and one cannot see that I have a kitchen table. I use two containers as something my cat can sleep on, and those two are also full with more paperwork. I used to be able to call it my organize mess, but it has gotten to the point where I cannot find anything anymore. I need help puhleeze!!! 
 
Sincerely,
Nicole
