Incremental approach could help with hoarding
4 minute read Friday, Jan. 13, 2023DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: My mother has always been a pack rat, and it’s getting much worse! I’ve seen TV shows on hoarding, and I know her habit has gotten way out of control. Our great big old house is cluttered with piles of old newspapers, broken appliances, books, and old “antique” furniture, crowded into every room. Plus. she has piles of other junk she’s collected that’s “too valuable to throw out.”

4 minute read Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2023DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I looked in the mailbox right after New Year’s — it’s usually just bills — and there was a big envelope with sparkles all over it. I pulled it out and tore it open. The only writing on the card said “Happy New Year!” and was signed “Guess Who?” It could only be one of two women. Now what should I do? I could phone them and go on a fishing expedition, but there’s one I don’t want to see again, because she’s trouble. She’s definitely dramatic enough to have done this!
