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.

Well I can understand her point of view, I remember you said she came over from Russia where I remember back in the 70s the bread lines and empty store shelves, so yeah I get it !
Back in the 80s we owned a 900sq. ft. house no garage, & no money and I realized back then with a job, roof over our heads, refrigerator full of food, 2 cars we were still better off than 80% of the world ! This is really a consumer based economy and I've fallen for it ! Now it's so great to look at the Sunday paper ads and realize I DONT NEED ANYTHING

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

Definitely have been through a great deal & have been getting better at prioritizing things

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
