I saw someone use the term "Bedroom of Doom" in another thread and that's a perfect description. It's supopsed to be my craft/computer room but has been so cluttered that i can barely use it. (and the computer is currently on the dining room table instead of the computer desk)
I was going to save this room for last because it was in the worst shape but a lot of the clutter in other rooms (papers to file, craft supplies, photos, etc) need to be put away in that back room. My usual method of cleaning the other rooms was to put everything in a bag or a box and stuff it in that bedroom--which left me with multiple boxes and bags strewn about the room.
Today I found one large box and put everything I intended to keep in that one spot. I also managed to fill 2 trash bags while I was sorting through stuff. There's still a fair amount of stuff on the desk but at least you can see the desk top now. You can also walk through the room without tripping over boxes. (all broken down now and ready to hit the dumpster)
It might even be a good idea to clean the worst room first because everything else is uphill from there!

haha...that sounds like our bedroom. I HAVE to clean it SOON. The clothes are taking over in there and I haven't seen the carpet in oh...2 years? I'm going to start chipping away at it 15 minutes at a time...even if it's only once a day, that's better than nothing huh?

I can relate to the Bedroom of Doom label. My "spare" bedroom is completely loaded with clothes and clutter that I stashed there when cleaning other rooms. I have been trying to talk myself into getting some of the junk out, but so far I have continued to avoid that room. Oh well, it will still be there when I am ready to start,  !  |

ha ha, nonimouse, "room of doom" would describe every room in the apt. right now! Great work, and i like your thought that getting the worst room over with makes it all seem uphill from there. you are going to enjoy your clean bedroom so much you may even want to work in there on some creative project. or not! anyway, enjoy!
