I can relate on so many levels, though our situations are somewhat opposite; Marek is the one who was raised to be quite neat and tidy, whereas I was raised by two packrats, inherited from both of them, and inherited from my packrat sister.
My house looks something like a tornado picked up every box in my county and stacked them in my house. I wish I was kidding. And going through them all seems insurmountable.
I'm somewhat envious of your preferred minimalism, even when thwarted. As my former spouse used to say, I'm a clean freak with messy tendencies.
But I can also relate with feeling adrift when away for too long, though for me it is my animals I miss the most, rather than my things.
Especially my cat Bear. He's my little love.
Sending you lots of love, and wishes for you to be back home in your comfort zone, where you can make faces at the deer heads to your heart's content.
I have no doubt they've missed you.;-)

thank you for your wonderful comment.
yeah......I miss my husband too LOLL I guess I put him under the 'thing' category LOLL
but yes, something about animals and things that are yours around you........ helps to make you feel 'at home' and relax.
those deer heads........... thank goodness he never got a good shot at the one that is bigger than the 2 already on the wall..... bow hunting is over now so the wall is safe for another year LOLL
Yeah, we have enough to deal with with the living animals. Demanding, they certainly can be.
You have my sympathy. ;-)
