Todays afternoon BREW HA we are talking about hoarding. Do you hoard something minimal or are you a heavy hoarder? Do you know somebody that does? My wife hoards every receipt we get! I do have to say on occasion it is a good thing if we want to return something. I am a hoarder of T-shirts I love old T-shirts. My grandmother had a closet full of wrapping paper and bows new and old for every occasion. So in all, hoarding in small amounts could be called a collection but its also hoarding in some form..and I think most of us do it in some way.It could be a full safe of ammo to a house full of newspapers or cats.
