 Craft supplies - I'm a Hoarder...

Everything else - I'm a pitcher.  

 Im a little of both.

[craftyfool]

 I'm a hoarder...big time...in every area of my life.

But I made a New Years resolution about 3 years ago to change that.  I'm still working on it.  It took me 30some years to collect all this stuff, it can't be changed in a year.  But I have recently thrown out a TON of stuff and OMG it feels SOOOOO gooooood!

 Somebody on here made a New Year's Resolution to use up their half-used products (hair care, skin care, etc.) before buying more.  That is my new resolution, because I feel sick at all the money that I spent and most of the products were good, I just got tired of them.  Also, we created a new master bathroom in our new addition, and I only moved over the stuff I was currently using, so when we cleaned out the old bathroom that is being redone for a guest bathroom, I found tons of things I had forgotten I bought!  Some were brand new!  Sick, sick, sick, I tell you. 

My mother became a hoarder in her old age.  I often wonder if it was one of the very early signs of her Alzheimer's.

I don't think that is one of the signs of Alzheimer's because my Grandma was the queen of hoarders, and she lived to be 94 and sharp as a tack the whole time.  We have been cleaning out her house since April, and finding things brand new in the packages...20 years old!  LOL!

 Don't feel bad - there are a lot of us hoarders out there!  Every now and then I become a pitcher (when it accumulates!)

[Smiley-Scrap8]

 My dh is a hoarder. So I've turned into a pitcher. I used to hoard but with both of us doing it, something has got to go. I need organization so I've learned to pitch.

 By the sounds of that I'm definitely a pitcher. But really though I am...I like organization. If I wasn't at all sentimental I wouldn't hold on to the childhood stuff I have in a large rubbermaid container. But luckily I am a little sentimental. Or just mental.

 I hoard stuff then get sick of it and pitch it.  And it starts all over again!

[grifscap]

 Funny that you aked this question. My dh was just saying how I pitcher ever thing out,but my scrapping stuff. He say he can't believe how much of this I keep.
So maybe I am going to be a hoarder in my old age.

 I'm definitely more hoarder than pitcher. I take after my mom...and my grandma. What their homes look/looked like is what has driven me to pitch anything at all!

My dh is a saver...he saves stuff for a year or so and then goes through it and gets rid of it, which is so much better than keeping it forever. I can't touch ANYTHING of his to pitch it because his mom threw away his pen pal letters when he was a boy!

[Shanscraps]

 sbing hoarder, everything else I'm a pitcher....

[averys_mom]

 I'm a little bit of both.  I attribute it to two things, being poor growing up- so I like to have a few extras of things on hand so we don't run out, and my dad being a pitcher- so there are a lot of things that would have been nice if we could have kept through the years, but he decided to pitch them, so they're gone forever.  Since I have a daughter, every time I want to go through and purge old SB stuff, I have just been setting it aside so that when she gets a little bigger, I will have supplies that she can play with.

 I HOARD EVERYTHING!!! I am a big ol' packrat and I can't seem to break the habit. I will throw away tons of stuff but then I find more stuff and I can't get rid of it...it's a horrible unending cycle!

[beachlover]

 LOL!  You sound just like me, Laura!  I get so disgusted with myself that I go overboard and throw everything away and start over again....  Then start hoarding again

[4lilmunchkins]

I am guilty of hoarding.

[Scraprat]

I have been a hoarder for years but want to get in the pitching mode!  I can't believe how much stuff just 3 people can collect over 30 years time!  My dh and ds are both big pack rats!  This year I want to start getting rid of a bunch of stuff!

[Heidi1154]

 I am a pitcher.

[JulianaM]

I pitch things constantly! I have a bit of problem sometimes.  I just wish I could learn to only buy things that I will use!!!  

[SusieKing]
