That's me in a nutshell.  I have that game mentality from years gone by.. if
I can pick it up and carry, there must be some importance to this that will
become clear later in the game. Pick up and carry all the things!

As I learned a little more abouth TLD, I would hoard stuff and haul it to 
certain areas where it would make sense to have it, near or on the way to
a forge or crafting table.  I've started using the in-game notes and 
calendar to write down where I've placed things in case I forget what I 
have or don't have and where it is.

.... I don't trust trees, they just seem a bit shady.
