So true! I moved into a bigger house, and it's totally full already! My biggest downfall is collecting art; I run out of wall space before I even move in. I guess the answer is to be a master rotater! OK, I don't think that's even a word, but it's what I need to become! Whenever I want to get scared straight I am going to watch the Oprah about the hoarders who had 75 tons of trash and filled a 10,000 sq. ft. warehouse with things to sell!

Every year I mean to conquer all the junk in my house. Every year it just gets worse! One time I hired some ladies to help out. they did a great job, but to no avail. By the next year, all the junk had mysteriously crept back into the basement. I think the best thing to do it just to sell the house with everything in it and start over. The good thing about our beach house (which I'm sitting in right now) is that we rent it, so we can't pile up too much stuff. Also, there is only one little closet for our personal things. So, that keeps things down a lot. I'll leave you with this one theory of mine. It's called The Lizard Theory. Lizards, apparently, grow to the size of their cage. So do we. You move into a larger house and your junk will increase in proportion to its size until all your closets are jammed and you have to move again. Happy New Year! I know what you mean.
