Grandma was a hoarder - she managed a couple of apartment complexes for 35 years total with a heavy college student population and kept EVERYTHING left behind. Sometimes good, sometimes crap. It took three years to go through everything on the initial sort. The final one just ended this last month.
Dad is retired from teaching at the local university and as all professors have, he has way too many books. Lots of them haven't been touched in over a decade. He's going through them, but we're keeping the small binder of early computer information. It has things like correspondence with people at Apple from early 1977.
It would take the braintrust to answer whether I'm hoarding or not, but there are a bunch of building materials in the garage and den left over from our kitchen/family/living room renovation project. The thing is that lots of them are being used in the current master bedroom/bathroom rebuild I'm working on right now and there's only been about an 18 month gap between projects. There is also a bathtub and two toilets set aside for the other two bathrooms in the house that I'll redo next year. I don't consider it hoarding because the stuff has specific, dedicated purposes and what they're set aside for is actually happening instead of "soon..."
On the other hand there's a Pioneer SX 82 tube receiver and a huge 1930s radio that need a little love after all this house stuff is done.
