George Carlin said that's why you buy a bigger house. Cause you have too much $h1t. You buy a bigger house so you need more $h1t to put in it.

I have too much stuff as it is. And too small of a house. No room. Though I am glad you are getting rid of what you don't need. I'd really hate to see you featured on an episode of Hoarders.

LOL. Nice post. I think I have outgrown myself also. In more ways than one I might add. I not only accumulated too many things, but I have gained weight as well. I am in the process of losing weight now and I will be getting to cleaning things out. I will do some spring cleaning this fall. When the weather cools down.

Hmmm... You would have to choose a pretty for me because that would make it sentimental for me. When I was creating the playroom I had to go through boxes of stuff that had just been stored in there. Half of it I had no idea why it was even in my home. But I did find an old but still in it's original package intercom system that will work as a monitor until I can get one for The Boy's room.

@Rosekitty We need a video style monitor in case he has a seizure but it is a little out of our range so we try to have it so he is with someone all the time but its so hard when there are things to be done. This helps ease the worry about and allow a little freedom for us all.

I think we all have a bit of 'hoarder' in us. I was looking for something the other day, and ran across a whole bunch of other stuff. Stuff that basically is just taking up room. Did I throw anything away? Nope, just too lazy. Oh oh oh.. You have a prezzie for me? How sweet of you. Ok, that means road trip.

@Rosekitty I think some is as you said sentimental and other things I think it's a mentality of, 'I might use or need that for something', and it just accumulates.

I took me an almost 2 hour nap myself today. Well, don't stand too close to the stove.
