OK, I'll confess: I have a tote bag problem. I carry a tote to and from work every day. I stuff all kids of papers and odds and ends into it as I go. When it gets too big -- or too heavy to carry -- I stuff it into the back of a closet and move onto a new bag. I've lost track of how many overflowing totes are crammed into closets in my house. My guess is that there are 9 or 10 ... not counting the one I'm lugging around this week. My husband is understandably annoyed by this clutter. It bothers me, too. But where do I start?

Help!

Ok First Step Mary, Take a deep breath and stay away from the tote bags (LOL)! Get a marker, some file folders, a timer and a trash bag. If you have a file cabinet it will come in handy if not maybe you should get a small on that can fit in a closet? (Maybe 2 drawers)
Go through one bag at a time set your timer for 15 minutes. Empty the bag and throw the trash away. Important papers label a file and put them in there all together. When the timer stops so do you. Don't be tempted to do to much at one time. Godd Luck tell me how it works out. Remember one bag a day? Oh what are you going to do with all those tote bags when they araea empty? :)
