I only take photos of my place when it's tidy, which might be quite misleading since I am terribly messy.<BR/>I tend to keep useless old stuff, just like you, but when I decide to throw things away, I go all the way and often get rid of important things.<BR/>I too have rolls of useless fax paper, totally useless.

Shame!<BR/><BR/>There, now I'm done guilt-tripping you as to make you more motivated to clean.<BR/><BR/>I've always wanted to see a fax machine dropped from a very high window but I would never give you such an evil idea.<BR/><BR/>It looks messy yet organized into categories of mess.

Your machsan project mirrors my Clean Up the House project, which started in August and must be completed by August 2007. I'm doing room by room, cabinet by cabinet. Sometimes I order myself to work, other times I'm looking for something and just clear out the junk as I go.
