Hoarders

When I was younger TV marathons were some version of Law & Order, the Twilight Zone, maybe Bugs Bunny or The Teen’s favorite, America’s Next Top Model. Today the Twilight Zone is still playing L&O is on ad nauseum and A&E has a Hoarders marathon.

I used to watch Hoarders with a look and attitude that I was so much better than these trifling a$$ folks. On a small scale, I am. I don’t have mounds of cat feces in my kitchen; dead or decayed rodents smelling up my basement and I know trash belongs on the trash, not in a pile in a corner.

As I watch the day’s episode, I realize that I have more in common with some of these Hoarders than I care to admit.

The control over their ‘things’ the lack of control over acquiring more stuff to cram into their spaces. I am guilty of wanting NO ONE to mess with my yarn and admit to a weakness over dollar store ‘finds’.
