After this weekend, I took a look in my den and kitchen and felt like I was drowning in paper! With the extra newspapers that come over the weekend, the magazines, catalogs and routine mail, the stack of paper is huge.  I think I need a separate large container simply for the paper.  My husband is very paranoid about attracting a bug & disparages my recycle pile of paper in the garage. 

We all preach from the pulpit to our homeowners to de-clutter their homes.  If I were in the position of selling my home right now I'd be in a fix to comply with my own sermon!  Oh, the stuff we accumulate and hold on to in case we or one of our children were ever to need that extra lamp, table or set of dishes, etc.  My philosophy is that no matter how big the home or how much storage capacity you have it somehow gets filled up.
