Our place is overrun with junk (read my wife's crap). Things are so locked up we (I) can't get anything done. The first thing I need is a place to put "keeper" stuff, so I started to clean out the frieght trailer we use for storage. ( I know that sounds of white trash but you really can't see it in the yard.)

(Background: when I moved her back down here she packed the 24' Ryder truck full.....one box high, so you can imagine how the trailer was.)

Well, I got almost ALL of her stuff re organized into 1/10th the space it occupied before. Looks like we're on track to having all work areas clean and freed up as well as "extra" storage space for.....

....you guessed it...

....more of her crap...one box wide, high and deep....:smirk:
 
Here, if there's horizontal space empty it is a violation of some unwritten Newtonian Law... It WILL be occupied by ~something~ in short order.

I gave up years ago. Now I just circumnavigate the piles.

I know, strange huh?!

Funny how they can't stack anything to store but ~somehow~ they manage to fit ~everything~ you both own into ever piece of luggge your entire extended family owns..... for just a weekend trip...

I guess it's easy when you're not the mule haulin' it.
 
Man you guys are treading on thin ice there.
 
Maybe we'll be seeing you featured on one reality program some day!?....or on the front page of a favorite newspaper.... .. . . . .
 
In our house,if there's a flat surface,she'll pile stuff on it.
I've tried to organize it,but can't seem to put it WHERE she wants it.
