Matters may be complicated, but there are still things I can do. Heck, this may be a good opportunity!

Length: I don't know
Steps: Have info ready. Then call or email. Just... do it.
Progress: I did... they weren't very helpful. Not writing this off mainly because I can contact them again, but I'm getting skeptical to if they can help me, unless I can get someone who knows more about computers and not someone reading from a script.

H3. Sort booksTag: Life
Difficulty: Easy

Progress: None
H4. Sort HouseTag: Life
Difficulty: Easy
Length: Medium
Steps: Clean up the clutter. Do it in sections.
Progress: I did some cleaning during a spree earlier in the week. I'd hardly call my house sorted, but it's a little better.
(3/24) - I set aside an hour and did a bunch! Mostly, I wanted to clear up the living room so that I could properly position my desk so that I can have a space for work and a space for play. Still haven't really decided which will be which yet, though. Anyway! This involved moving some boxes to a different room, relocating some boxes, and reallocating some old notes/folders/textbooks to a different box. I managed to reduce a box this way! The empty box is now lying unceremoniously in my overcrowded closet where I'll probably remember it later. (Note to self: Return to that box and go through those notes; there's some redundancies that I can get rid of to make more room.)
+10 space, -1 bedroom space, +1 piano setup motivation, +2 papercuts!

Progress: Re-learned chaining. Getting the hang of crocheting. I think I'm missing some nuances. There's more steps.
