It is practically impossible to declutter a home in which the two 'Elders' of the family are the biggest hoarders in the world. Every hobby that Aaron and I become interested in automatically gets our undivided attention for a period of time and we collect all of the paraphernalia involved in each of them. Then we try and find a place to store it! Hmmmm........
Our cars have not seen the inside of a garage in quite a few years as in each house we move into, the garage becomes a hoarders haven, full of very interesting tidbits but very little 'space'.
I am frequently frustrated about the state of our home. I LOVE unclutter. I would love nothing more than to have nothing on our benchtops. Or a very uncluttered living space that I can relax in.
Is it possible to have an uncluttered home when you are a collector and hoarder? We have about 3000 books. We NEED a library!! I suppose if we were able to afford a larger house though, we would just 'grow' to fit into it wouldn't we? |

P.S. RTC: we are from the states but my kids generally call me mummy... (I just like it, I guess...)
