Dear Auntie HiC,
I heard what sounded like an explosion in the guest room & dashed upstairs to investigate.
You will NOT believe what I saw!

Rocky was precariously perched atop a mountain of STUFF previously packed away (hidden) the closet & cedar chest.
This is embarrassing to admit, but Mom’s a hoarder! 🙀
Not all over the house, just in the guest room closet & chest! 😹
Warning: Some may find this disturbing! 😹
Update: She’s making lots of progress, and we will be donating lots of STUFF to our or local animal shelter thrift store.
❤️ Cali
Dearest Rocky
Rocky Auntie HiC thinks you might be part Mountain Goat...look at you exploring with the greatest of
ease. True Confession: Auntie has a CAC taka CATCH ALL CLOSET
DEAREST CALI
I spy a treasure in the treasure chest......
Love and hugs to you both
Auntie HiC
ooh that is super n9ice to help our friends in need... bravo and a big thank you to your mama
ReplyDeleteLooks like Rocky caused an avalanche! That is a good time to have a sort out, and the charity shop will be glad of it.
ReplyDeleteOoh boy, that's a lot of stuff. Dad used to "collect" things and had rooms like that. And then he met mom. That's all I'm gonna say.
ReplyDeleteHari Om
ReplyDeleteOMC... I guess we all have a little corner of our living spaces that are overflowing, if we're truly honest with ourselves. Decluttering is so good for the soul - and space! Hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
Rocky looks ever so handsome being King of the mountain. You did a great job getting a photograph of the whole thing Cali. Sometimes humans just have to sort things out a little bit. Actually for a kitty it would be a lot more fun everything stayed on the floor for a long time.
ReplyDeleteWe think she just has a lot of stuff but hoarding would be far worse. At least she is organizing and getting rid of some of it.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me feel a little bit better about the room in my house that has become a dumping ground for anything that doesn't have another home.
ReplyDeleteAgghh! That takes me back to the state of my house last year during the renovations! 😲😆
ReplyDeleteI have a spare room for storage, with too much stuff and too little storage. Ha. And that's in spite of my constant decluttering!
Rocky and Cali, keep a close eye on your mom and make sure she's ruthless! 🙃
Laughing at the video and music! Sounds like a plan that she is making progress and donating to the animal shelter. We cleaned out the laundry room cabinets and decluttered in there yesterday. We must have felt her energy :)
ReplyDeleteNot disturbing, but what is disturbing is wondering what is in that adorable small steamer chest with the lid closed. also was afraid the chest might close on you Cali. All my stuff is hidden to. I have 3 double closets and a walk in that are full and it it all came out it would be much worse than this
ReplyDeleteCali, all our mom's have not -so-secret-hidng places for stuff! You should see what Mom and the brothers call "the HH". First H is another name for Hades, and the second one is for hole. WHAT a horrible mess aways!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how fast things pile up!
ReplyDeleteWe have a junk drawer and I'm happy I don't have a junk room. You did make me chuckle though. Kit does no wrong so I'm good with your room of treasures. You're so cute too.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Love and hugs to Auntie C and Kit and scritches to the kitties. ♥
We all have too much stuff that needs to be sorted out and bless your mom for donating, Cali!
ReplyDeleteYep ~ agree ~ I have cleaned out several houses and now this one isn't too bad but still 'too much stuff' ~ Way to go cleaning out ~ Bravo ! hugs
ReplyDeleteHugs and love to you and Angel Madi ~ xo

Life as it has gone by has been a process of downsizing ... until now when we can't go "down" anymore ... well, until we're down-under, so to speak ... the family pets at the time were always curious when any of those "events" were taking place.
ReplyDeleteY'all could have lots of fun investigating in that room!

ReplyDeleteI see a lot of good stuff. Beautiful chest.
ReplyDeleteYou are a good snoopervisor helping your mom, Cali. Make sure she only puts back things she really will use.
ReplyDeleteThat is not too bad. It is all clean stuff. XO
ReplyDeleteDear Cali, your Mom isn't a hoarder if she can get rid of stuff. Hoarders don't do that. And I say good for her!
ReplyDeleteSometimes those closets need a good grubbing out, and a cat-valanche is as good an excuse as any.
ReplyDeleteThank you for capturing this stunning photo of Rocky Top
ReplyDeleteIf Mom's a hoarder then so am I. I have one of those rooms too :) Precious photos and video. Sending hugs!
