Wow. Why the snide comments, Johanna? I stopped reading comments for a while because of your negativity, which breeds more negativity from others. Why do you read this column since you don’t like it? Others do like it, and your negative pestering is very unwelcome. I imagine you will turn on me, which I will ignore.

That looks like garbage, not clutter.

This post may seem obvious, but too many people want larger homes to store stuff they never use and/or can’t find. Also sometimes people let their expensive cars sit outside while their garage is filled with less valuable clutter. Unless one has the time and energy to deal with it, garage sale and thrift shop finds are often the culprit.

This is almost, but not quite, as good as when I learned that buying new clothes to wear around the house was a waste of money. That tip saved me thousands. Anyone know of any great coupon sites for boxes?

That is some impressive clutter! Is that a meat grinder?

You mean, like a shelf, closet, or drawer?

Appropriate storage place?
