Good morning everybody 🙂

Great to read your posts on phase five! 😀
Been run ragged here and ended up quite ill.
Taking care of myself and ALL the cats & kittens though.
Need more supplies like cat food and kitty litter.
Need HELP! ;D
But the kittens are so sweet and adorable I just could not leave them outside when the temperatures are down in the 20s and the hawks, owls, coyotes & foxes are hungry too.

WAY TO GO!!! Everybody on every accomplishment, especially the little ones that really do add up and help make your homes the sanctuary of your dreams.
(((HUGS)))

****BREAKING NEWS - THIS IS BIG!!!****

I went to my clutter meeting today. The person who runs it is a social worker who is with the same place where I see my psych doc for anxiety & ADD meds. Really nice lady. She knows my situation, and she has helped other people with practical matters re hoarding situations. I got the sense before that she would've liked to help but wasn't sure how.

Today, I don't know if I looked more pitiful or something just clicked in her mind (besides that, I know people have been praying for me, many without even knowing the private details of all this - so I attribute some of this to the Holy Spirit's inspiration). She came to me after the meeting and asked me what specifics I needed. We talked awhile and long story short, she is going to meet me at my storage unit when we can set a time. That will give her a chance to assess what is needed, and from there we can make a plan to get me transferred over to one closer to where I live, where it will be so much easier to deal with my decluttering.

That is the basic plan. I know there'll be lots more details and practicalities - and money remains an unknown - but I think this is the beginning of something great. I am soooooo jazzed! It would mean the world to me if I had a shot at rebooting my life from the hoarding. I think I could solve other issues with the freed up energy.

One step at a time, I know. But to have someone reach out, someone who may have some honest to goodness resources and connections - wow. Just wow.

Hi Everybody 🙂

Hi Tatoulia 🙂
YEA!!! for a pretty new outfit! 😀
I read a long time ago that ice cream sales are always highest in the Winter months.
I have to admit that I also have splurged way too much on it this Winter.
I sell/sold a lot of items to the pawn shop here.
They buy all sorts of things.
DVDs, antique glassware, silver plated stuff, tools, rifles/guns, just about everything I ever wanted to get rid of.
The pawn shop here is a clean family run business and we all know the people who work there.
So not at all spooky or seedy.
When you look back at the items you bought, don't just think "what a waste".
Think about how much you have grown and changed and the things you once fancied no longer interest you because you have moved on to better desires. (((HUGS)))

Another big storm is blowing in this afternoon.
Supposed to really test the already water soaked rivers and dams.
Fingers crossed there is no loss of life.
I don't live in a danger area but these are beautiful places I have always enjoyed visiting.

TTYS 🙂

Working from home today but under a lot of pressure. Not sure I'll be able to do more than run dishwasher and do a little laundry. Need to leave here at 5 and then tomorrow have a big day. Luckily my valentine gave me gift card & I got a new suit and blouse and new costume jewelry for tomorrow. At least I'll feel good about myself.

Tillie ice cream has been a real problem for me. I don't seem to know any limits. I cannot buy it anymore.

Not able to find anytime til the weekend. Luckily Monday is president's day. If consignment is open I'll bring st least one thing with me. They don't seem to do a good job of selling silver and glassware so I won't bother with that. I'll just donate. I'm trying to bring stuff that should sell rather than might sell. Like my antique chocolate bunny mold. I have some antique salt & pepper shakers that might catch someone's eye. Even though low value, they are very cute. Like watermelon slices and penguins/stuff I couldn't resist so very long ago. What a big waste of money for only slight joy. Learning process.

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! 🙂

Hi Anonymoniker 🙂
Peroxide and honey is good advice 😀
GOOD LUCK with your truck project.
Stay positive (((HUGS)))

Hi Pain 🙂
As always, GREAT plans you have!
Happy that you all went out and had a good time together (((HUGS)))
So nice that you have favorite photos all together!

Hi Tatoulia 🙂
Thank you 😉
I got pudgy too stuck inside all Winter and hope to get back on track now that Spring will soon be here.
Scooter's eyes are doing good, so much better but still needing the drops to hopefully get them back to normal.

BEAUTIFUL day here today!
So me and my 5 Valentines were outside all day.
I raked and tidied up my garden area a little.
The 5 cats explored and played and watched birds.
It was so wonderful to be outside! 😀

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm home now, pretty exhausted. Had half a sandwich but I'm still hungry. Went clothes shopping and got a real eye opener on my extreme weight gain. I need to immediately get back on track. It's embarrassing.

So I'm doing a little self-loathing right now. We are celebrating Valentine's on Saturday.

Good work, everyone. Pain I can't believe how much you do in a day.

Anony, you seem happy these days! Keep up the good work!

Hey CM! Would love a drive by!

My dear Tillie, thank you for keeping me on track. Much love to you & the kitties. Let me know how scooter's eyes are.

I forgot to mention.
I made a slideshow from the all pictures I've been scanning...
It was nice to only see our wedding photos and dating photos , and dad and daughter dance pictures. As we're were waiting before left for dinner.

Happy Valentine's Day.

Tuesday's are my one and only trash day per week.

So Monday is the day I gather trash, and then spend time in those rooms that I keep trash cans .
Basically the kitchen and the bathrooms.
It's just a way of letting routine keep the trash out.
I've been tweaking my trash day routines.
Here's my recent updated task list.
Fridge
Trash
Microwave
Oven
Floor
** crock pot stews
Toilets
Trash
Sink
floors
Bathtub. Take a bubble bath. To end the cleaning.

After the trash truck comes and goes. I take my can past our cars and clear out all trash from the cars.

We're doing fine today. We went to a pasta place called the spaghetti factory. Even though we have colds.
My car was clean and smells like obsession.
I kept the radio loud enough that we didn't talk in the car. It was busy so we waited in a crowd for 45 minutes. Another glass was bought. Just something else to take to the hoard.

I up to $682 of Sales from the hoard.
So I thought perhaps I could buy a portable dishwasher.

No need to go to storage today to visit our hoard.
Seems only need to keep up on trash and cleaning.
Our moods have been good this week.

Most of the have gone. I've been vigilant about looking for dead ones and keeping bait everywhere.

I started buying new airtight containers from Walmart. They have a vacuum pump in the lid.
I made a law in the house about only having food in the kitchen, and food in the kitchen must be mouse proof. But I I still find bags and dishes where they sleep. And no matter how much I yell and prompt them to stop it . It continues. It annoys me very much. I find myself angry, muttering and disturbed. So I'm putting in these air tight containers. Better than simple shoes boxes or totes. These are mouse and ant proof, and helps keep chips and cookies fresher .

So I go back to the old law.

A little mess is OK. Alot of mess is unacceptable.
Right now only me and mother in law are routinely cleaning the cleared spaces.

Right now I have a friend of my wife come on Friday's. To stay with my wife.
I chose Friday to prompt mother in law to go home.
Hopefully it'll stick. But they are adults and will make they're own decisions.
Mother in law comes on Monday and stays till Friday.
1 she drives me nuts, literally.
2 I don't want her to get burned out for when we need her most.
Trying to get her to just stay Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday . And looking for volunteers to stay with my wife Monday's or Thursday's . As she doesn't need a visiting nurse yet.

I am planning for another dinner this time just for visiting. I think I would be nice to open the doors to friends and family on Saturday's or Sunday's .
But I'm still just thinking g about it.

Maybe I should leave it only Sunday's after church.
So that I can keep the routine of going to the hoard in the storage unit on Saturday's.

Whatever mess I make on Sunday could be cleaned up on Monday's.

I hope you are well.
(( Hugs ))

~♡~Happy Valentine's Day to all!!!~♡~
Tillie, im not sure how worried to be over my kitty's fight wounds. The lady i really trust who ran the vet clinic that fixed my cats suggested peroxide then raw honey. Ive gotten a huge range of advice. Id take him to a vet i trust if i knew of one. Ive had far more bad experiences with vets than good. I will be monitoring him closely! Ill have that rental truck later today so ill be able to drive to the city to an emergency clinic, if it gets bad.
Its been raining for a few days, which will make my projects with this truck so much harder, but there are so many projects, the rain might narrow my choices, which would make it easier...ha ha...hows that for a positive slant on it? ha ha
~♡~Love to all of you on this & every day!~♡~

Good Evening or Late Afternoon 🙂

Hi Anonymoniker 🙂
Thank you.
Yeah, it's hard to describe a hoard. LOL 😀
Kitty bumps after a fight are most usually abscesses.
Untreated they will often burst open and drain, close up again and refill with puss and the cat would get very sickly with infection throughout it's whole system.
A Veterinarian would open them up and clean them out and give antibiotics.
There is also a new injectable medication that the Vet can administer that takes care of the abscess without any surgery or follow up antibiotics.
But it is expensive.
At least the little bits of trash will be all freshly washed from your rain storm. 😀

Hi Tatoulia 🙂
Thank you 🙂
When unsure if something is consignable or not
ask the person at the consignment shop if they think it would sell or not.
WAY TO GO!!! for all your bagging donations, consigning, gifting and shredding.
((((HUGS))) I know it's hard.
All the very personal stuff carries a lot of emotions.
Happy to know I am not the only one who schedules vacuuming around the cat's routines. ;D

Bought a birdbath last week for 5 dollars.
It's cast metal and had been painted white.
Desperately needed new paint.
Bought a can of teal blue spray paint and yesterday I painted it.
Looks beautiful now.
Filled it with water this morning and have been watching the birds enjoy it all day today. 😀

Hello everyone!

Do get some help, Anony--hope you have a friend or neighbor that can help with heavy lifting.

I've been shoveling for a few days. It's definitely been winter here so cannot imagine your comfortable weather, Anony & Tillie. I'm shredding. I'm shredding I'm shreddingIm shredding. It is very painful and I'm taking a break.

I'm on to another donation bag. Boots that hurt my feet and a pair of sneakers I no longer wear. I'm about to take garbage out. It's dark & icy but I don't want to miss it in the AM. I am unreliable in the mornings.

I'm feeling a lot of stress from different sources. Largely it's scanning the diaries before shredding. I can't tell at this point how many are left. There could be three, there could be 13. I don't feel like checking.

This isn't easy. But I'm doing it.

Spent some time with mom today. Brought her flowers for Valentine's Day and BF sent her some very nice pastries with a cup of coffee. She was thrilled.

Okay I'll take the garbage out and see if I can do anything else tonight. I'd like to vacuum but kitty's asleep. Thank God for her. Otherwise I'd be vacuuming. 😄

Hi all!
Pain, you are as hilarious as you are productive! ha ha I think it is fantastic how youve handle your entire situation! Truly amazing!
Tillie, im soooo glad you & scooter are feeling better now! I tried to visualize that laundryline situation...it sounds like the hoard is so much more extreme than id imagined! Im so sorry you have all that to deal with.
My back has been sore, but only enough as a sort of warning that im gonna need help with some of this stuff. My kitty that got in the fight has some bumps, so i may take him to the vet...im not sure how serious they could be, tho generally i think they tend to their own wounds better that what humans come up with.
We had an unusual storm yesterday & all night with lots of lightening & thunder. That never happens this time of year! Ill have to wait till dries to rake & bag up more of that trash bits in dirt...
~☆~Have a splendid day, everyone!~☆~

Poor Tillie! Poor Scooter. I'm glad you got some time in the sunshine. We've been having a lot of snowstorms here.

I'm finally doing it. I'm shredding and shredding and shredding. It's hard. I'm also making a bag of stuff that's cute but I need to say good bye to. Not sure if any of it is potential consignment stuff. I can think of two pieces maybe that can be consigned. I also have a nice table that I will give to BF. I know he'll want it so no point in consigning. I use it but I think it's time to let go. It's next to my couch and I think I can move a little table in my bedroom to the spot, thius decluttering the bedroom. I really don't have extra furniture here. I have a big piece I want to consign but not til I have its replacement. And I know what I'm looking for, so I'm in no rush. I'm watching the auctions for it.

That's what I'm doing today. Plus working. And shoveling.

Good Monday Morning 🙂

House has gone to heck since I wrenched my back during the disastrous wind storm.
Finally feeling almost all better now
so today I will start picking up around in here.
Was a beautiful weekend, weather-wise.
Cats and I spent many hours outside enjoying the sunshine. 😀
The Walking Dead was a good episode and I got to watch it online on AMC at 7:00pm!
Scooter goes back to the Vet again today for an other evaluation on his eyes.
They are much better now and don't seem to be hurting any more.
He is back to playing with his toys again instead of just laying down with his eyes closed all the time. 😀

So, what are you all doing today? 😀

YEA!!!
Another Walking Dead Fan!
So looking forward to it being back on!!! 😀

A self sustaining compound is very interesting.
When they built the MGM Grand hotel& casino in Reno back in the 80s
that is what it really was, unknown to the general public.
But my Father worked building the place and so I know lots about what special features it has. ;D

Went shopping again.
Everything was great til daughter suggested going to goodwill . That wasn't bad , it was when I said why to goodwill when we get what's in storage cor free. Boy did I step into it. Most of the afternoon was just milling around . The thing is we don't need anything . I just need to keep my mouth shut sometimes.
Mother in law went home. The walking dead is on tonight. And when I said I'm taking over the living , but any fans can stay. She packed up and left.

So quiet right now. Nothing to do.
So I'm thinking about working on another model. I was toying the idea of a compound. But I have a dream about house . Like a calling. I know it's unrealistic, but I draw on it like an inspiration.
Similar to the earthships in New Mexico.

So I'll just keep at it until sailing season opens.

Hi Pain 🙂
That shopping excursion sounds interesting.
Happy you were able to run and hide in the restroom. 😀
Sleep over party is wonderful!
So nice your daughter can now enjoy her home and have friends over!
So very true that kids need that time off from life.
Time to socialize, play and just be kids.

Hi Tatoulia 🙂
Thank you (((HUGS)))
Hope you are able to get some good rest this weekend.

Almost 10:30am here.
Looks like a lovely day out there.
Think that the cats and I will get outside and enjoy it.

Tillie I'm sorry about the close line and your upset. You don't deserve it. I'm so so sorry.

I'm doing laundry and about to change the sheets. Dishes done. I'm still very tired these days but keeping calm and cool. It's after 10 here. i have to shred papers tomorrow and cat litter. Kitty will be fine one more night.

Pain glad you are trying to get back in the swing of being a family. I'm amazed at your work.

Daughter is doing with with friends and plan are tentative to ha e a sleep over. Daughter asked if mother in law could go home during. So I proved. I guess I'll take this to be the day I get in her businesses as much as she tries to vet into ours. But I'll wait till her usefulness is done for the day of course.

Wife is just watching tv.
So I packed them all up . Kids,moms, and me.
I got my tax check ,but I didn't say I did.

I asked mother in law to stArt doing the shopping with my wife. My wife can't see well and gets very very upset and takes it out on me. So it's mom in law turn. Mother in law just wants a list, BUT NOOOOOOOOO.

Well we're dysfunctional infinite why must I be at the center of frustrations.
It got heated in the store.
I hid in the bathroom , it was like two Titans going at it ,even a security guard followed them.

We all get in the car. And take everyone to the storage. By then no was speaking . Just that awkward silence that makes us want to bang our heads. I thinking. Yep welcome to my life mother in law.
I'm thinking we should start ordering online and I stead of shopping. We could go to nice place and listen to music or a play . Anywhere where we don't speak.

But when we need to. It's not a group castration.
Anyhoo .
My said she was glad to get out and that she got to see her stuff. It's OK for now.

There's really nothing to do. But sit around respecting each other.

So I asked mother in law if she was going home and when she'll be back,?
I don't want to be cold, but I'm not even wanted in the house when daughters friends come over. I know granny wants to be apart of the excitements the kids have. I just have to let them have space.
So got some smores for on-the-porch. It's about 60 degrees. And the kids have until 10pm to be loud.
That's the law , the noise ordnance. So it's the rule. We adults can even go somewhere while they play the instruments.or video games.

During the week is school nights.
But on Friday and Saturday the kids need to do non life lessons. I'm not the only one struggling with mother in law. At least she helps clean stuff. She just needs to Know where the boundaries are.

Hi Pain 🙂
Wonderful to hear that family life is good!
All your efforts have really been paying off. (((hug)))
Good solid plans for reducing the amount of bins too.

Hi CM 🙂
Happy that your life can now get back to normal now that you are no longer waiting on the vehicle repair. 🙂

Hi Anonymoniker 🙂
Great to hear your spirits are high! 😀
Hope the kitties settle their territory disputes without any blood shed.

Hi Tatoulia 🙂
Poor kitty! Hope the stores can restock soon.

The other day the winds were raging.
Some of his hoarded, heavy and heaped up crap came flying down and destroyed my clothes line.
I tried to rescue my clothes line because without it I can not do any laundry.
Big huge useless unneeded and unused tv antenna broke the lines and pulled the heave metal T posts inward.
I was unable to save it and hurt my back trying.
Been so depressed and in pain. 🙁
When I am able, I need to reset the T posts, buy new clothes line rope and restring it.
Meanwhile all the laundry will just keep piling up.

Hello everyone! Glad to hear from you Anony! Don't overdo--I know you are excited with your progress and I am sooooo happy for you!

Cm--that must be a relief to have the car fixed and now the vacuum will work again too. Mine is working but you wouldn't know it as I haven't used it in a while. I did wipe one kitchen counter last night and what a pleasure to wake up to it. I need to do this more often.

Pain, I haven't read your post yet. But so, so glad you are here.

More snow tomorrow and Monday. I am out of everything and even the stores were out of kitty litter yesterday. Miss kitty is not happy about that.

Take care everyone--hello Tillie. I hope you & Mr Tillie are okay.

Friday.
Cleaning the common areas.
Places where guests can feel clean and Comfortable.

I got thirsty. So I spent time seeking a perfect tea and coffee station.

I threatened teenager to sweep, vacuum the floors . Or she stays home alone all weekend.
On deaf ears till I said and no Wi-Fi either.
I turned up the radio really loud so she could vacuum to her favorite music. I swept the hardwoods.

Daughter says. The house doesnt have to be perfect.

But she couldnt give me any facts to support her theory.

Instead of picking on Everyone. I chose my daughter today. During commercials. Switched to her tubs photos. And I asked her to slide through each one.

They are all numbered . I already have a printed form with the the same numbers next to check boxes.

So when she says something I can make quick notes.
Text to speech helps make quick work of making g the lists digital. So it's all on my mobile.

As take things from the tubs. I can quickly swap the pictures by number and time stamp.

It's slow. But it's a way of hurdle helping wife and daughter to purge their hoard. One at a time. Aiming to purge 30 tubs each. Daughter is doing well.
Wife still acts like I'm holding her stuff hostage after stealing it. I'm not perfect at this I'm just guessing and making it up as I go.

But my plan was to separate their their stuff and prompt them to purge over a period of months.

My hoard is like a child's closet full of projects and equipment I no longer use.

Daughters hoard is like a plethora of toys mixed with art supplies and comic books.

Wife is like books books and more books . And then 900 purses filled with filth and mouse sheeit.
More shoes than I could find in a thrift store. And boxes and boxes of unorganized papers.
I've brought back all her valuables that are worth more than $20. So she is down to 56 tubs and 25 shoe boxes.

Just keeping in mind. . I need to spend time purging our hoard.

So far so good.
I came home to brownies today. I know being a man I should get teary about things. But when I come home brownies and women being nice to me . I know I'm on the right path not just for myself but for us all. 😉

Anony, great to hear from you! Glad you're coping through the challenges and channeling your energy to good use. Getting a lot done, it sounds like. Hope the kitties are able to sort things out without any major injuries.

Pain, glad to hear the new routines are beginning to gel. And how great to be able to sell items and have the cash. That's been one of my problems is that I don't have a lot of things of value. I might be able to sell the occasional book or craft item if I knew how to connect with the person who wanted it at that moment, but in the meantime I still have to store it, so usually I just cut my losses and gift it to a friend or donate it to charity.

Tatoulia, be safe and warm in the storm! That darn old groundhog saw his shadow and now you are reaping the fallout. I can relate to the wanting to sleep. When you think about it, it's natural - animals get to hibernate in the winter, why shouldn't we? 😉 Because I'm a night owl, I sleep too late in the mornings - and have crazy and unsettling dreams then too, which wear my mind out. Lately though, I've been getting tired mid-evening and wanting to go to bed with the chickens but there's still too much to do. One of these days I'm going to have a go to bed with the chickens night and see if that helps refresh me.

Today I'll just be wrapping up my week of playing catch-up after all those weeks of trying to plan around connecting with the mechanic and getting the van repairs done. He came and got the vacuum cleaner this morning and we'll get it back tonight with the new hose put on. That should help keep up with the pet hair and dust a lot better. The allergens have caused my roommate a lot of suffering this winter. My allergies are mild by comparison, but it'd surely help me too if we can stay on top of things.

I think I'll not try to do laundry today; I might go out and grocery shop or something. And need to get a birthday card for my aunt. Our warm sunny day is unfortunately a windy one, not unusual for this area. We get every kind of weather in every time of the year, yet mild days without wind are a rarity. Hey, anyone planning to try and watch the lunar eclipse and comet tonight? Hope we can. Last night I took a couple pictures of the moon with the glow around it and some tree branches. I only have an 8 megapixel camera on my tablet so it's grainy but you can tell what it is. I would love to be able to afford a DSLR and good lenses. When my ship comes in!

Need to clean the bunny litterboxes and other miscellaneous around the house. And just continue to get my bearings. Like I said, now that I'm not tied to the "when is the van going to be repaired" guessing game, I'm getting back my focus somewhat and making up for lost time. Guess I'll just play it by ear, it's a Friday, why not.

Everybody have a great weekend!

Hi everybody!
A lot has been going on, mostly good! Ive been focusing on raking up the area around the storage trailer of all the tiny pieces of trash & plastic, and that great feeling in my dream has absolutely manifested! It feels fantastic! I finally found a place that can fix my car, so ill rent a truck & just keep taking loads to the dump! Im gonna collect everything i can comfortably carry, then later find a way to get the bigger heavier stuff. It has been so soothing to clear that stuff!
Things with the boyfriend became very obvious when he pushed his power trip games too far a few days ago. Im sad he isnt the one, but im ok with it...im actually doing pretty good! Ive been on a wonderful & deep spiritual journey that has been fantastic!
Today the stray/feral black kitty got bullyish with my cats & my big alpha male got in a fight with it! In his 11 years ive never known him to actually fight! I think it was spurred by his girlfriend, Ms. Lioness, being chased. It was very chivalrous of him! I also feel like a trader cuz ive been talking nice to it, tho telling it it cant bully my cats...i dont want to turn away any needy kitties, as long as they dont bully mine.
My short term memory is so bad. I read y'all's posts & had things i wanted to say to each of you, but if i dont write it down as im reading them...geeez...but it sounds like you each are doing great! ~☆~♡~☆~♡~☆~

I think it was spurred by his girlfriend, Ms. Lioness, being chased. It was very chivalrous of him! I also feel like a trader cuz ive been talking nice to it, tho telling it it cant bully my cats...i dont want to turn away any needy kitties, as long as they dont bully mine.
My short term memory is so bad. I read y'all's posts & had things i wanted to say to each of you, but if i dont write it down as im reading them...geeez...but it sounds like you each are doing great! ~☆~♡~☆~♡~☆~

Hi everybody!
A lot has been going on, mostly good! Ive been focusing on raking up the area around the storage trailer of all the tiny pieces of trash & plastic, and that great feeling in my dream has absolutely manifested! It feels fantastic! I finally found a place that can fix my car, so ill rent a truck & just keep taking loads to the dump! Im gonna collect everything i can comfortably carry, then later find a way to get the bigger heavier stuff. It has been so soothing to clear that stuff!
