Not too productive

I've realized that every closet, bin, drawer and shelf in the house is full. So at this point opening boxes seems kind of fruitless. There are still empty shelves in the basement but it's pretty damp down there. We're running one dehumidifier in the basement all the time and will probably have to buy another. Michael says it will be cheaper in the winter because the heat from the boiler will dry things out. So there are lots of things you can't store in a semi-damp place. The attic will probably get pretty warm in the summer so it won't be good for certain things either.

In a favorite old P.G.Wodehouse book, one of the characters states that they have reached an "imparse." The downsizing Michael and I have promised ourselves is now going to have to become a reality. So who is going to start first?
