Help me get my home in order!

I am a pack (b)rat. I never really thought I was, but by the looks of my home, it’s obvious I am. I’ve lived here for 20 years and I’ve managed to make a total mess of the place. And, other than a few appliance upgrades, I haven’t really done anything in the way of remodeling or decorating.

Part of my problem over the years was severe depression, and part was simply not knowing where to start. (Ok, and part was just plain ol’ laziness.) But, the depression appears to have abated (with a great deal of help and effort, not magically on its own) and I think I can now make the effort to fix the place up.

I hope to use this blog as my chronicle of progress. Let’s see if I can do it!
