Re: I understand

Oh, Jimmy - Could this woman be my last business partner.  She had a minor car accident and the police came to the office to ask me if I wanted to get the items out of her car before it was towed to the car repair as she had many court documents in it.  It took the staff 3 hours to clear it out.

You've just described the on-going battle my wife has with the mother of one of my friends, a border-line hoarder! The clutter on her diningroom table and kitchen counters would bring a tear to your eye! My wife tries, as nicely as possible, but sometimes it's like trying to hold back the waves from crashing on the shore! For some reason, this woman just cannot bear to have an 'open space' anywhere in her house! It must be filled with something! The battle continues . . .

Starting small is a great way to start.
