And don't despair. We must embrace the horizontal surface syndrome.

Sadly, secondly, I wish my house wasn't always like this, but it is and I don't think I'll ever change. Hopefully we can all learnt to just accept it and get on with things without feeling guilty!<br /><br />Freya Freya Blackwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055470842086911254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154687180927120587.post-84132577991976502212013-06-21T17:49:27.241-07:002013-06-21T17:49:27.241-07:00I love this post!

I am expecting my third child in 8 weeks, so tell myself I need to get rid of it... otherwise where will I put all of the baby "stuff"? :)michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11370822751034909522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4154687180927120587.post-60234892368031563472013-06-20T04:55:23.878-07:002013-06-20T04:55:23.878-07:00I've been fighting this fight for 40 years .

These piles are meant to be dealt with, filed, repaired and ultimately spirited away to all foreign corners of the house. Yet they linger and grow and ultimately become part of the furniture.

I so relate.<br /><br />If you sold this as a print, I would proudly frame it and hang it on my wall, to try and glorify the state of our home, a creative hotbed of stuff.Claire - Matching Pegshttp://www.matchingpegs.comnoreply@blogger.com
