At some point, the clutter stops looking like a mess.
It’s been there so long it just becomes part of the landscape — the way the counter “always looks.” You stop seeing it. You just live around it.
That’s this island. One person bought something, and everyone else just assumed it was still being used — so it stayed. Nobody “took care of it.” We just stopped and looked at what was actually there. Turns out most of it had already expired.
If a space has felt overwhelming for so long it doesn’t even register as overwhelming anymore — you’ve gone numb to it — that’s usually the moment someone else in the house finally hits their limit and asks for help. That’s usually one of the signs it’s “time.”
