Back into the Room of Doom

I really am a very noble creature.  A woman with less nobility than me would quietly forget the Room of Doom.  After all, it has a door which can be shut, no need to take the camera when I do go in there, what reason could I have for mentioning it on this blog again?  And why am I suddenly claiming to be noble when anyone who knows anything about the Room of Doom knows that I am a slob?

The Heap of Shame
 Well, when I started to write about it back in January several people commented that I Am Not Alone.  Other people have basements, lofts, garages of doom and they were very encouraging.  And it sounded as though they needed encouragement.


So I’ll fess up – the Room of Doom is not much better than when I started.  I have photographed just one heap, a heap which it would be good to get sorted before Easter.  There are quite a lot of things to be listed for eBay which takes time and I am also involved in the major project of organising a 90th birthday party so I am giving myself a realistic time scale. And I am offering encouragement to anyone else who resolved to deal with the mess in 2015.

    Is the birthday girl the same you are making invites for? I am a basement of doom and appreciate the motivation.

      Yes, it's all for Auntie Hettie. She lives with her daughter so secrecy is difficult within the household and she's one of the nosiest people I know - but lovely with it. Is that a new profile photo?

    My basement of doom has progressed so much but at some point (the end of this month) I'm calling it good and throwing in the towel. I can only spend so much time in the basement.

    Then I'll head up into the second story of doom. I'm not even joking! You are fortunate if you only have a room of doom! HAHA, I have 2/3 of a house of doom (there are several solid reasons for the condition but still). One little bit at a time... you are doing great!

      Erm, what makes you think I have only one room of doom? A girl can only face so any problems at a time.
