Hey Stitchripper, I have seen studies where "over cleaning" is actually bad for your health. I grew up on a farm with animals, dirt, etc. and a one-room school with a water bucket and dipper as did many of our generation. We kept our house as Mom used to say "Clean enough to be healthy, and dirty enough to be happy." My MIL house was a museum where the grandkids could not touch, or even stay (we always got a hotel). Sometimes Moderation is good. Yes, bearisgray I have been the original owner and hope when I donate it someone else appreciates it too.
And, yes, someone has to be the original owner. I donate a lot of clothes just because I'm tired of them or they are out of style/don't fit/just don't like anymore. I always hope that someone else buys them who will appreciate them.
