poliphilo The housekeeper at the Meeting House is a hoarder and uses the Meeting House to store overspill from her collection. This can't be allowed to get out of hand.....
But it's not just a logistical problem, it's also a pastoral one.
"Sigh".....
I have some sympathy with hoarders. I'm not far from being one myself. I love junk.
I live in an animate world- and don't like getting rid of things for fear of hurting their feelings.
However I don't extend my sympathy to packaging and old newspapers and worn out saucepans- stuff that has a certain function and can't ever have expected to continue in existence once it's done its work. This is what saves me....
Though there's an in-between class of objects- decorative biscuit tins, glass bottles in attrractive colours- that tug at my heart strings.....
