[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 363345, member: 3907"] The inside of my house is relatively under control, just the usual clutter of books, toys etc. However, you don't want to set foot in the basement IF you can even squeeze past the pile of flotsam sitting at the bottom of the basement stairs. In my efforts to keep the rest of the house in some sort of order, I have been known to hurl things down the basement stairs and shut the door on them. The owner of whatever-it-is is then responsible find it and deploy or dispose of it in the manner they see fit. And, my back yard has a convoy of wheelbarrows and garden carts, a deflated portable pool, assorted soccer balls and garden tools, hoses and patio furniture in various states of repair, and other assorted stuff. I joke with husband that all we need is a rusting car body, and we could be Sanford and Son. We've been meaning to put in a shed for years now, but until we get to it, I just try to keep the mess contained in one corner of the yard and piled as neatly as I can. We had a tarp over some of the stuff, but a tarp simply can't withstand a Canadian winter and it eventually disintegrated. [/QUOTE]
