I live in fear of becoming one of those people. That's why I have no major stash..

I suddenly feel like cleaning my apartment!!

I have not laughed this hard in ages!!!!! It looks like it would have been a lovely home, if you could find it. If I had been the daughter, I would not have moved in in the first place. I don't care if it was cheap!! I'd rather pitch a tent in the park. Too bad the comments were so nasty.

Wow that would be very stressful to live like that. I guess I can put my house work off a bit longer. I broke my knee so I'm on crutches for 3 months. My house work is getting behind but seeing that makes me feel much better.
Sorry your living in that. I'd be really curious as to whats in all the boxes. Fabrics? Sewy stuff?

yes, forgot to add, don't read the comments if you are easily offended. Not all boards are as nice as this one.
My fridge has ALMOST as many magnets on it as that one. But I try to keep my hoarding tendencies in check. An older friend of mine had to clean out her mom's large house after mom passed - she said mom had one room that was just filled with jars. So now when I want to hang on to a random container because "I might need it someday" I think of that room full of jars.

Sorry, I just can't laugh about this. If you've ever known someone like this, it's torturous. The push-pull...the mounds and mounds of stuff...it's anything but funny to everyone involved.

Yes. The comments. I didn't find the pictures half as offensive as reading the language that everyone used. Now I'm not perfect, I use bad language..but that was totally uncalled for. At least there was some semblance of order to most of her stuff.
