Confessions of Hoarding Tendencies

Ok, before you react to the picture, I need to tell you that I didn't realize I had so many bags. I keep them between my refrigerator and dryer and I had no idea that so many could fit back there. The worst part is that I've been using reusable bags for months. So all of these have been stuck back there for a long, long time.

See, my parents are coming for Thanksgiving, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to really clean my house. Like the cleaning where you move furniture and wipe down baseboards. Sadly, laundry was the victim this week and I totally skipped it.

Sorry - back to the topic at hand. As I entered the kitchen with my mop and bucket I started moving everything on the floor that doesn't weigh more than I do, the step stool, the scale (yes, my scale is in my kitchen....it's because my bathroom floor is slanted), and the bags. But then they just kept coming and coming from between the fridge and dryer. I have thrown away 2/3 of this mess and feel very refreshed about the situation.
