A journey into cleaning up a big pile of..... hoard

Nothing

The days that I get the most accomplished in discarding stuff turn out to be the most difficult to write about sometimes.
I have an overflowing recycle pail, a full regular garbage pail, Amvets coming tomorrow and things are looking better. Not perfect, but better. I was thinking, 'soon there may be nothing left to do' when it hit me - nothing.
There is no such thing as nothing. There will always be more. Even space, a vacuum (which reminds me I have to vacuum), even space is made up of something.
What exactly? Dark matter. Well, I've got plenty of that right here - usually molded from exposure to moisture. But space appears to be empty. So if I get rid of everything in my driveway - will it, too, be empty? No, because it will be like a vacuum, welcoming junk to return. I must remain vigilant! Final thought of the night - what type of Dyson vacuum is best on meteors and space dust? That's the one I want for my house!
