Definitely, although I do tend to hoard craft supplies and sentimental stuff like school papers, projects etc. It's the memory keeper in me!

My mom has lived in the same place most of my life and has multiple properties (house, cabin, 2nd house closer to the VA hospital when she cared for my grandpa, etc) all with pole buildings, sheds etc. As a result she has never had to clean up/get rid of. She just moves stuff from one place to another. It's a true hoarder situation but after having to go through my grandmother's estate my mom is trying to take control of her situation so I don't have to after she's gone. These are the times I wish I lived closer so I could help her! Too much stuff really does clutter the mind!
