Problem I have & I know I'm not alone (hopefully) is I buy back ups for backups for certain things I know or feel won't be available or easy to get later on if/when I need another. It's a disease or I'm just mentally ill.

I hope that disease doesn't effect your memory to the point that you forget where you can get back ups for the backups for the backups ! You know who to call !

I'm using excel. Once accustomed to maintaining strict nomenclature and precedence, it gets easier.
Don't worry about alphabetizing, there is a sort function - providing you've followed those two facets.
I'm lightyears from completion but 1st save is in my phone. Saved a small fortune not buying "cool" that'll turn out duplicate.

Good news "OCD and early onset CRS" are sedated by TAS.
