It is a concept my family is NOT familiar with. Sigh. We are packrats (not true hoarders – we don’t save everything – we do recycle paper, plastic, and metal and take out garbage and have a cleaning crew come in to vacuum and clean floors and bathrooms and we do laundry). HOWEVER, we do like to accumulate STUFF. We each have our hobbies and they take up space. And we can at least talk about it and recognize that it is a problem – just not at the “this is what we are going to do about it” stage. Hope to get there soon.
Throw it out? Just when it’s getting so comfortable? No way! Seems a lot of men are this way, but I have a couple things I’ll never throw out either. This cat shirt my friend gave me, with the front of the kitties on one side and their back ends on the back, the front is so faded out, the thing is stained all over the place, but I’ll never give it up!
