We Are Under Seige

I feel like there is a siege on my house that I am losing. As much as I try, stuff keeps being catapulted over the walls (gifts, mail, toys, stuff that I am enticed into buying). It is a constant onslaught and I am losing ground against everyone who is trying to convince us to consume. It sneaks in and after a while it has consumed the space that was free two months ago. It is slow and insidious and I don’t notice it day by day until the space is hidden. Then I need to rally the troops and make a concerted effort free the space once again.
