I find myself wondering if you have had a stroke and need her to call for an ambulance. Can you come back and say what that means when you are better?

Friend,
I believe we may know each other from the ESPN forums nearly twenty years ago. It is good that you are seeking to talk about these matters. Even better than typing your thoughts would be talking to someone in real life, perhaps a friend or family member whom you trust. Lacking that, you could write a letter. Get all your thoughts on paper. The act of doing so may be cathartic. You don't necessarily need to give her the letter, and you may feel more comfortable destroying the letter after it is complete. To organize and express your feelings right now may bring some reason to an emotional time.
I pray for you and your relationship.
Sincerely,
TulaneLSU

Just cut the bullshite. She’s a hoarder and it’s driving you fricking crazy isn’t it? Did you draw a line and demand some of her shite go and when she refused you tried to compromise with a storage unit?
Pretty much we have finished basement that I am allowing to have shelving / organized hoard. I am not comprising further. Two people in a three bedroom and three living areas

This could actually work out to be a pretty huge positive for you...
Agree to accept all her mom’s shite and then you can hold it over her for future arguments. Use it as leverage for BJs, etc. come on, baw!

Maybe he wants to go stay in a hotel just to get away from all of the junk which seems to be their main point of contention

accept all her mothers crap and put them in storage and then have storage wars shows on youtube.

Lol, are we married?
Seriously though, if this is the worst you have to argue about, you’re in great shape. Don’t stay at a hotel. A movie is a good idea if you need some cool off time.
I have a minor issue with hoarding myself. I’ve gotten much better (I think, husband may disagree). I at least try to store everything in plastic containers and keep it put away. A storage unit is a great idea for the items that are too large to store in your home while y’all decide what to ultimately do with them.
She’ll calm down. Just get back on the supportive train. Stop being an arse and realize she is really in between a rock and a hard place!!!!

This doesn’t sound like anything anal couldn’t solve.

Olive Garden thing is a joke from the movie old school
First world problem is I have a house with no mortgage yet we find reasons to be unhappy. I can't continue to be in this unhappy bubble forever

I get the reference but our OP can't really articulate his thoughts well.
Maybe it's an internet/writing thing. If not I'm sure communication is a considerable part of the issue here. One or two people who are emotionally immature (wife, sounds like) and can't intelligently converse probably can't work out their problems easily.
TulaneLSU might be trolling you but he's probably right that writing out your concerns and feelings for your wife and using it when talking to her is probably a good idea.

Be a man and gut it out. Running away is easy, you start running you’ll never stop

I’m with you. I wouldn’t compromise anymore. You’ve already lost the use of your finished basement to store all of her crap in. If you give in, next it will be a spare bedroom to stack shite in. If this shite means so much to your wife and MIL, they can rent a storage unit and keep it there.

and you have work issues?
Not that there aren't other issues at play but can you honestly say you haven't been a bit of an a-hole because of work stress? Every man I've been with seems to turn into a raging ahole when they are stressed at work and bring it home. It is very common among my friends' husbands as well.

I only read the first page but its generally better to let her do whatever she wants within reason when it comes to her parents or siblings. Sounds like that is your problem.

the grass is always greener.
have a couple of kids, then you won't have time to pack rat. invite the MIL to live with you for free babysitting but no pack ratting or she goes to the curb.
