Yes! Trying to do some clearing out and straightening up nearly every day.
It's a lot harder now with being in a wheelchair so much since my stroke 10 months ago. Don't feel stable enough in my walker yet to do much. Wish I'd done much more when I had the chance. Hubby can't do anything now, either -- because he can only go from his bed to the recliner due to pulmonary fibrosis. This is not what I'd call "aging well".

@grrranny
Is there anyone in your network of support (friends, neighbors, church members, senior services organizations in town) who could come and help you. Maybe take one category of items at a time and help you sort through them? Don’t ever be hesitant to enlist help. You have your hands full just taking care of each other. Wish much luck.
