Clutter and Weight Gain....Related?

(This is a photo of the room that would eventually become Grace's room. Taken on the first day we moved into the house. I have no idea why I didn't just run screaming out of the house at this point.)

I'm still mulling it over. It's an interesting connection. If it's true, the fact that I am no longer my svelte size 6/8 self after purchasing this house has everything to do with this:

...and nothing to do with, you know, hitting 40, having a kid, spending less time running, etc.

Though! The fact that I slid back into a size 10 this weekend at 42 and still haven't hit the gym yet? Might have everything to do with this:

These new front rooms are making my butt look FAB-U-LOUS. I'm not moving anything in there. They are staying empty forever.

p.s. On a related-note > Earth Day today! Related because there is a reason why the word REDUCE is used first in the phrase REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE. Also, there should be a fourth "R" in there. REPAIR.
