Is it possible to attach some 2x4 in between the joists on the top plate of wall? That should give you a lip to attach OSB to.
Let me bust out my MSpaint skillz real quick...

Thats what I was trying to figure out, if it was level (Ha!) with the top plate or angled up.

if the ties were level with the top plate my life would be a lot easier, but I'd also lose two feet of headspace. 8' ain't enough for us tall folk - that's why JC's garage is ab as high as his house...
