Throw Pillows & Wasted Time

I have recently spent some time at my mothers house and she, like many individuals, loves throw pillows. While I do like them myself ,and have on more than one occasion thought about purchasing some that have caught my fancy, I have managed to resist the urge to accumulate a menagerie of the beautiful brocade and beaded pillows that shout "Buy ME" from the store shelves.
Sadly, my mother has not been able to resist those small, soft, glitzy, and fluffy little slices representative of decadence and finer living. That being said, there are so many of those little things floating around my mothers house that I really could not help but think (as I watched her pick up yet another accent pillow for the umpteenth time today) what a complete waste of time and energy. Maybe one or two here and there but when you are bombarded by a barrage of pillows at every turn that seem in constant need of straightening or to be picked up I can't help but wonder just how much time out of ones life is being wasted on the little pieces of stuffed cloth. I ask myself is that much time out of my life worth wasting? and the answer is NO!
