Life is just a pile
As Dianne and I look around the house, we see piles of stuff. The stuff we have accumulated in just the last several years is enough to declare Mount Everest a hill. It’s not that we are hoarders, as hoarders themselves would say, because we do have garage sales, yard sales and any type of sales we can come up with to get rid of the piles of stuff we don’t use.
