This was a really hard weekend at the hoarder house but we didn’t stop until we were done. I’m so overwhelmed right now. It was pretty awful working in the sun room.
Everything started out okay. She had gotten rid of lots of papers before we even got there so all I had to do was load them up. Then every time I would pull something out of there, I would find another box of magazines. She was getting really good at getting rid of papers by the time we left. It was slow but steady progress all day.
All day, my mom was incessantly asking if we could get rid of things. Her friend was actually doing a pretty good job of letting things go but it wasn’t enough. The thought of putting it all back in was making my mom crazy. She was running around yelling that it was all junk and she just wanted to throw it all away. I felt bad for her friend but she really does need to hear it. The amount of knick knacks, and everything else, is way beyond excessive. She can’t get in her house anymore.
Want to see the after pictures?
I’m excited about the after pictures of the sun room but it’s so hard knowing that she’s going to fill it all back up. It still has too much stuff now but two weeks of Goodwill shopping will fill that room up again in no time. It’s so frustrating thinking about it. While I’m trying to figure out how to throw all her garbage away, she’s going to be shopping to replace all the things that we got her to let go of. Oh well, at least they’ll be able to fix her furnace for her.
So here they are, the sun room pics after we finished for the day:
It’s not great but much better, if I do say so myself!!
That room is so cute! I want one (without the clutter!)
Me too!! I could tell today that she really tried to keep the clutter out but to no avail 😞
So well worth your time!! Lovely!
Such a lovely room!
It’s beautiful! Hopefully she won’t fill it up again for at least a few weeks!
