which mess do I dive into first

which mess do I dive into first? When I left my schools this year I took it all. It was easier to bring home to sort. This was a daunting, horrible energy-stealing task. I put it off for over a month. Leaving the boxes out on my porch. Messing it up, an embarrassment to others. To me, something I could not yet face. To avoid this mess, I created another mess In my art studio, where I was frantically painting one canvas after another, in order to forget the porch. And the job that was waiting. then company decided to visit. I knew I would be horrified if she saw the porch the way it was. So I began to sort; most of this went into the trash. There were twenty-two boxes which I burned I have gone down from five messes to two messes. Big messes; one in a bedroom, the other in an office. The bedroom mess was stealing my energy. Causing me to feel depressed. Would I ever be able to face it? I began facing it yesterday. Sorted about eight boxes and three bags. The more I sorted, the easier it became.
