I try not to let it get to me, but it is difficult to turn a blind eye to her overflowing shelves and piles of STUFF. Luckily we had a moth scare in her room and I was able to leverage that into a bit of a clean out... I dread to think what she will be like when she has her own place!A latte beckonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967372772145537800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773539610706998068.post-29758702828470241942020-06-08T12:28:59.943+10:002020-06-08T12:28:59.943+10:00The Marie Kondo process presents a particular diff...The Marie Kondo process presents a particular difficulty when one of the couple is a hoarder (and a little hint - it's not me!) I've had to realise that there is no higher moral value to tidiness. Some people are easily overwhelmed by mess and disorder - some can tolerate or even enjoy it. My husband refers to his 'oasis of chaos'. I like to keep my drawers and wardrobes neat and sparse, he likes his to overflow...but we manage to cohabit fairly peacefully.Susan Greenhttp://www.veritysparks.comnoreply@blogger.com
