Thank you, onward and def! Here we go!
I'm working very much within the strategy you suggested, onward. I don't want to turn the little study into a storage space, much less a disorganized one, so I'm using it as the basic measure of what I can bring. I know it's going to be tough, because I know that although I will be able to find plenty of things left in the churn.
I'm using the same strategy of garbage bags for the move as I did for the crisis clean. Get the stuff out of the old space and into the new. I will post a pic, actually, of how small the space I'm going to move into is.
The carloads to my new place strategy was in place on Saturday. I had intended to spend the night there. but my air mattress is within the churn and there is no furniture over there yet.
I have to admit that I dawdled quite a bit, having private space that was space again. I need to bring bits and bits more of structure to bear on this process.

Dear Dobbin,
Bit by bit, it will come together.
I don't blame you for dawdling while enjoying the empty space for a while. Let that help inspire you to keep it as empty as possible, so you can continue to enjoy that feeling.
You can do this, you are getting there!

Having finally gotten to the point where my spaces make me happy and relaxed as opposed to adding to the stress, I totally understand reluctance to briing stuff in.
I would suggest that you follow the rule of keeping anything in your study that you do not know to be useful (currently) or find to beautiful. (Paraphrased from William Morris.)
Make a space that is special to you to the point that you willl want to keep it nice.
Onward
