Got Junk? Not anymore! Well maybe a little...

Our basement no longer looks like an episode from Hoarders.  Despite what my husband says.  I am a huge packrat.  I keep things the kids may use.  Things that can be made into crafts.  Old letters.  Books I may read again.  Clothes that will one day fit.  Every CD I ever owned.  Books I haven't read.

Here is a list of things I did not find in the basement:
  • a dead mouse or any other vermin - a must have for anyone on Hoarders.
  • one flip flop -the other one finally got thrown out.
  • the pulsating spider egg sack from arachnophobia -Anytime I clean someplace dark I am afraid of finding that thing.
  • my 505 spray glue - I have lost at least 2 cans of that stuff, where could it be going?  At first I thought my husband was hiding it from me in an attempt to get me to clean up the basement but now I think it must be getting sucked into some vortex.
  • loose socks - although I did find a pair of dirty socks by my husband's golf bag-EWWWWW
  • a skeleton - I saw some TV show as a kid (that I swear was Newhart) where they found a skeleton while moving a wall and it remains a concern for me.
  • treasure - wouldn't it be great to find a Picasso or a wad of cash?  No luck though.
