Seems like a person spends all of his time maintaining the "STUFF". House,cars,trucks,motorcycles,ATFs,boats,campers,m otor homes.

We could all probaly use to scale it back some.

Yep; sometimes things are taken away...like my 4-wheel Toy :icon14:
Definitely have been through a great deal & have been getting better at prioritizing things :wtf2:
As I’m looking forward to seeing that Z today...I know it’s gonna be a project car if I decide to purchase & a few home repairs & climate controlled shop will come first.
It would just have to be covered up & sit :confused:

The solid one I helped install up North was also rough :icon14:
Fubarred up a few things installing as well.
Hopefully when I get to the point of doing my next one; I’ll have things a little more disassembled prior :ugh2:

She really hates to throw away food. She says its habit from growing up. If you didnt eat what little food you had, you starved...
I have to go through the refrigerator regularly to check on old stuff.

My parents went through the depression. My dad grew up on a farm. They didn't throw anything away. Fixed it and reused it. Ate everything off an animal. Nothing went to waste. My mom, had it somewhat easy. Her mom worked on the river boats on the Ohio, and Mississippi rivers. So they had an income. Growing up like that. Mom threw everything away. So, I'm a mixed bag of the two. Keep it, and throw it. :icon14: I know what you are going through. :rofl2:

The threesome pairings are fun though. Everyone looks so miserable. Haven't seen Molinari smile once.

What makes thing worse, is that the gf grew up playing with those russian dolls that open up and there are more dolls inside that also hold more dolls. So now, she has this quirk where if if something looks like it can be used as a storage/holder for something, shell keep it and find stuff to put in it....but it has to fit perfectly..l shes OCD in that way..lol

People who went through depression did everything themselves.No one had any money.You had to learn a lot of different skills to survive.People where very independent and pride full.

Now days people feel like they are owed things just for being alive.

So few people do there own work anymore.A lot of do it somebody elsers.

That's why they are referred to as the Greatest generation, they did without, survived & prospered ! No snowflakes there :shakes head:

Side note: read last week a college somewhere in the US was removing analog clocks, cause the students were complaining they couldn't read them

I learned a lot of different skill sets off of my dad. :tup: Him growing up dirt poor on a farm. Everything was done by hand just about. If it broke, you fixed it. There was no throwing it away and buying a new one. Didn't have the money to do that. At the dinner table. My dad would eat anything in front of him. Never turned anything down either. :rofl2: My daughter used to call my dad, Pap Pap Pack Rat. :rofl2: And my mom, Grandma Throw it away. :rofl2:
