Oh, I'm soooooo glad to hear you say that.

I'm afraid my home was turning into a museum that
violated the Fourth Law.  I've spent days throwing
crap away, and I'm amazed at how much floor space I've
found.  Now that my youngest has fled the nest, it's
been how much junk can a junky junk if a junky wants
her house back?  Look Ma, no junk!

I must remember that one.  You can't save everything.

Don't send Martha Stewart over to help.  That goes to
the First Rule of Human Nature.  You can't save
everyone!
