My Pack Rat Eye Tis

accumulation choking the room bitterly an embarrassment carefully tromping through it side-stepping junk gingerly My pack rack eye-tis surrounds me untidily disturbing eyesore jumping over largest pile not inviting company

I like the, "pack rack eye-tis" much better than the word, "clutter". One of my Uncles was considered a pack rat because of the stuff he drug home and recycled but, he would take things apart and reuse them; he built his own bicycle once when his family couldn't afford one. What some folds call pack rats, the pack rats themselves, may be artists, inventors, recyclers; some people repair things and give it to those who have need of it. In short, pack rats, are necessary.

My piles are nodding their heads in agreement, and throwing out their hands with happy that you have said this. All I have to do is turn to watch them waving at you.

I am such a pack rat; it almost disables me sometimes.

My husband thinks every little pile of my clutter is horrible. So I am always moving stuff around to stash it out of sight. I really need my Xmas break to reorganize the house again and make it more tidy. Wish you luck. Clutter can make one feel so overwhelmed.

Just a little bit of it puts me down and out; makes me want to nap I am afraid.

Almost the only way I can get rid of any stuff is to watch one hour of the show Hoarders. It has helped to cure me. I highly recommend it if you can watch it without getting physically sick, my friend.
