The room...it was clutter, crazy...and it was...OCD. People struggle to realize that hoarding is...obsessive and compulsive. Most people associate it with cleanliness, but the truth is...it's anything obsessive and compulsive. Most of the time Renee couldn't even tell you why she went to the yard sales and bought the things no on else would buy. She just saw them and thought some day, maybe...she could use them. The first sale she ever went to was six days after her mother had passed away. From that day on, she stopped at every one she saw.
