I can relate…nicely done.

We are borderline hoarders in this house! I LOVE the accompanying photo. It’s perfect. Something never seems “right” to me when I see a perfectly pristine house.

I’m with the others on the photo – wonderful to match the words. Well done, as it made me feel a bit uncomfortable. I’m the opposite – everything goes.

Very wry and funny. Unfortunately, I seem to be two-thirds of your family!

I love that you always find a perfect image (from your own personal collection) to illustrate your posts. And I am a firm believer of less is more, yet there are some stuff that I just can’t let go (ask my mom and her basement holding my junk…)

Love the cars. My son still has his collection… but his cars are not so well taken care of. They’re in a Rubbermaid bin.
I sometimes feel the same way. I often wonder how much stuff we’d miss if we did an extreme overhaul of every room and got rid of things we haven’t used in a year or more.
