virginia totally rocks - i was secretly hoping she would give me some tips - so thanks girl!!  andrea also hooked me up with some info over at scrapjazz - so i'll be looking into that - and a great tip about hanging storage!! thank you for that!!
so - i just dropped off loads of paper and stickers and such with cole's teacher.  she loved it and wanted to pay me!!  crazy girl!!  i have lots more to go through and clean out.  i'm glad virginia said to be brutal in my purging because thats exactly how i was looking at it and now i feel like my thinking has been validated!! 
virginia also suggested a roll top desk - i have an old desk that the top folds down but i think it's going to be in my living room and my scrap storage may be upstairs - so now i think i may reevaluate that.  the only thing is it's smaller and i don't think there's even room to leave a layout laying in there, much less anything bigger i'm working on.  that's really something i want to look into and see if i can make that work for me.  great idea!!  i need to just hang out with you Virginia and you fill me in on all that cool stuff!! 
and if you don't know virginia - you are missing out!  she's super cool, makes me feel cool when i'm around here, even if i'm not real cool lol - she seems super organized in lots of ways and i am striving to reach organization in lots of area.  its a struggle for me.  the lists, i can make - the execution, not so much. 
anyway - if you have no clue what i'm talking about here - go to my previous post - and please leave me more tips!!!
lisa
oh and you can go back to that post and read the tips v and andrea left me - good stuff!!

I don't know who Virginia is, but can she come to England and help me get organized for our move back. I'm just standing here, going "where do I start?".
BTW, the roll top desk sounds excellent. We have one here that belongs to the guy we are renting from and I really like it.
I have so much stuff that I should purge... but I keep thinking "I paid a lot of money for this stuff..."
I need to USE it.... or have someone else clean out for me so I can't see what goes!! :-)
You make me feel like a rock star. :)
