How does this happen? I am cleaning up two bedrooms because we have guests coming in tonight.  As I pick up in these rooms I am tossing odds and ends into the trash, recycling other items, and covering the dining room table with all sorts of STUFF! Where does it all come from? Why do I have to deal with it, keep it, file it, or find a new place for it. We have too much stuff.

I am getting help from Shelby. He is sitting on an open corner of the dining room table and watching me as I type this. Oh, and typing is a diversion from dealing with stuff. If I type or surf, or read e-mail, I don't have to deal with the pile of STUFF on the dining room table!

No pictures to go with this post. You don't want to see my STUFF.
