One day of this would be bad enough, but we're going on three now with at least two more in sight. If I don't sort through the stacks immediately and make very heartless decisions relating to recycling, it is all over. There is only so much counter space in my kitchen, and I actually need some of it for cooking and eating! Starting to look like an episode of Hoarders here...
