Thread Name: Cluttering - A Celebration
Subject: RE: Cluttering - A Celebration
Just because some of us are trying to de-clutter doesn't mean we are tidy or boring!**bg** we moved from a house of about 1700 square feet to one about 894...some thing's gotta go!

Linn, my mom used to tell me I should sell tickets when folks came to my house; she said it was just like a museum with all of the neat stuff I'd picked up when living back there.

Here's what George Carlin said about stuff (yes, I posted it to the other thread, too:)

"That's all you need in life, a little place for your stuff. That's all your house is: a place to keep your stuff. If you didn't have so much stuff, you wouldn't need a house. A house is just a pile of stuff with a cover on it. That's what your house is, it's a place to keep your stuff while you go out and get more stuff. Sometimes you gotta move, gotta get a bigger house. Why? No room for your stuff any more. You've gotta move all your stuff, and maybe put some of your stuff in storage. Imagine that there's a whole industry based on keeping an eye on your stuff."
