Needing some direction :)

Yikes! My 40 bags in 40 days has been hijacked! I was off to a great start when 2 weeks ago my main floor wash machine broke down and flooded a good portion of the house. The end result is a dry house (whew) that is still in limbo. We're still unable to hook up a new laundry set, and don't have decent access to 25% of the house. The guest bedroom is neatly stacked with MANY identical, taped up boxes all marked "unaffected contents", courtesy of the restoration company that worked hard to dry out the house properly. I'd really like to get back on track with the 40 bags because I think it'd keep me focused and help keep the household running smoothly, but this week I am starting to spin my wheels. So...my question is.... what's best, to focus the 40 bags on the livable parts of the house to keep that end nice, or to focus the 40 bags on tackling the '40' mysterious brown boxes? What would you do in my shoes?
