We also have an old stone wall and dirt floor basement. I pretty much refuse to go down there - lol. Dh and ds have workout equipment down there, so they go down, but I can only imagine what it looks like! I'm still concentrating on the rest of the house. We have lived here for over 27 years, so I keep reminding myself that I have at least that long to declutter it. LOL. Slow and steady wins the race - I just wish the stuff I'm ready to part with would sell... even for a few bucks. We do have another donation pick up scheduled for this coming week, so more stuff WILL leave the house. Just really would like some of the bigger things to go.
