Could you live (happily) in a micro apartment?

134. I'm not the pack rat in my family.

My mother is. What does she do with her overflow? Sends it down to my house. Then, at any time later when she wants it, I had better still be storing it for her. It just kills me. When I was a kid, my closet was not really mine. It was full of her stuff. Now, my trailer/hovel (everyone I know calls my little trailer a hovel, so I do too now, but I love this place, it has potential, as I see it) is full of my mother's stuff. I'm saving up to build a largish shed in the backyard to store all her crap, while her huge metal building at her house sits empty except for her van. It just kills me.

I do have a small collection of rocks and Japanese stuff, but if this place had only my stuff, it would fit nicely with no problems. It would actually look really nice if I could actually put it up on the wall in shadow boxes. As of nowadays, I don't really collect any more stuff, at least not physical stuff.

The computer helps a lot with the accumulation of stuff nowadays. Now, my hard drive and how quickly I can fill a hard drive is another story. I'm a full on hoarder when it comes to files. Hell, I even make computer art and leave it the highest quality and the size to make into wallpaper. I can't help it. There is a whole world of fun inside this little machine. I love it!
