First of all, I am a hoarder. Mom was also a hoarder. Mom was born in 1916 and survived some really hard times. When you have nothing everything becomes important, not just food and clothes. Growing up I watched her put away...

Are you a hoarder?

shaloo walia @swalia (1385) • India 4 Jun 16

Some people are hoarders. They will not discard a thing even when it has outgrown its use and purpose. Their houses will be full of clutter just because they can't let go of stuff. Are you a hoarder?
