Pondering a Hoarders Ways

why do hoarders keep their garbage? Their empty containers? Dirty diapers? Used dog pads? If you hate cleaning like I do, turn on the TV show, Hoarders. It is the best cure to my housework apathy. There are small paths in the houses they feature Hoarders don’t sleep in beds Beds are covered with stuff Hoarders live on piles of debris Their bathrooms are full of used pieces of toilet paper and in one episode, the skeleton of a cat who died there Food containers are never washed or thrown away Their sinks are full of dead mice floating in cups of water The workers have to wear masks The smell is no doubt unbearable I still have to ask Why do hoarders keep their garbage?
