According to Wikipedia Hoarding is a pattern of behavior that is characterized by the excessive acquisition of and inability or unwillingness to discard large quantities of objects that would seemingly qualify as useless or without value.
It is official I have become a hoarder of RV blogs and websites - mostly blogs, at least it's digital right? ;o). Why hoarder? I say hoarder because my collection of RV blogs has gone beyond the scope of gathering a few blogs to read. Every time I go to an RV blog and I see their list of blogs they follow I can't help myself I have to go their blogs and then so and so on...... I end up in this endless vat of RV blogs where people are jolly about their location, their rig, the people and it never ends .....arrrrrrrrrggghhhhh.
But I wouldn't have it any other way. I love the fact that I can live through the experiences of others until I am able to share my own. As long as full rvers are out there sharing their day to day I'm going to be a hoarding, reading, admiring, wanab ;o)
Welcome to the wonderful world of RV'ing!!
ReplyDeleteHiya Ali,
DeleteThanks so much!! There is so much to learn and one thing I can say about this RV world is that everyone is super nice!!! I hope you are following our blog as we go through our antics of becoming full time rv'ers. Have a super travelin day!
Ha! I am right their with you. We are almost full-timers. We moved into our Rv this year, but we are not traveling yet. Until then I just read what everyone else is up to!
ReplyDeleteAt least you have the rig and are almost living the dream. We have a long road ahead of us ;o) pun intended. But it is so nice to know that I am not alone on my hoarding road ;o)
DeleteA dozen links in the blogroll does not a hoarder make! :-)
ReplyDeleteFeel free to add our RV lifestyle blog to your reading list then start thinking about what you'll do with this blog and domain once you're full-timing!
Now that you're an official RV Blogger, you'll be on the road before you know it.
Hi Jim thanks so much for commenting on our page. I haven't gotten completely organized as of yet. All of my sites that I have saved are in my bookmarks saved on my computer. I have to back through them to save and follow on my RV blogs. But I must say I am familiar with your blog and I am humbly honored that you stopped by my little old blog to comment. Have a super travelin day!!!
DeleteExcited for you guys! Another one to add to your blogroll, since you're a self-proclaimed hoarder. ;)

We're not on the road, but living full-time in an RV park, hopefully to be on the road in a year, working seasonally. I think this lifestyle (for us) is actually much more stable and offers more security and peace of mind than having a mortgage. This allows us the freedom, ability, and peace of mind to be able to pick up and go whenever we want, save money while living simply, and focus on relationships rather than the constant acquisition of "things." I've lived both, and prefer the current situation much more! Best of luck to you guys. Keep livin' the dream!
I'm thinking what could make a better collection than blogs about rving! They are filled with inspiring stories to keep the dream alive . . . and everyone is at a different point on the journey - some still dreaming, some just beginning and then there are those who have been travelin the open road for years! There's nuggets of value to glean from each one.
ReplyDeleteWhen you need a little push, the right words find their way into your heart.
Yep, and it's always easier to learn from others than stumble around trying to figure out what others have already learned. By the way.... you will find that you will get more comments if you do not have the "prove you are not a robot" enabled. Where is your blog roll? Aren't you going to enable my hoarding obsession?
