Quote from: davina61 on Yesterday at 02:39:15 PMMy mum overstocks on stuff but at least she puts the date on cans and keeps them used, why she has to have 3 of everything is beyond me as we go shopping every week! Freezer is full as well, I keep telling her to use it up .
I have similar tendencies, but usually with flashlights (aka - torches). If one is good, two is better! I do the same with clothing. If I really like a certain article of clothing, I'll buy two of the exact same thing. Unfortunately, sometimes I grow tired of the style or design before I ever wear the second one.
@LoriDee, don't forget the toilet paper! Just a few months after COVID struck, I was waiting in line for our local WalMart to open -- hoping they had some toilet paper. While waiting, I commented to another hopeful TP shopper that this was all Sears' fault. If they hadn't stopped printing those giant catalogs, we would all have a supply of emergency toilet paper at home.
@Courtney G , I'm sorry that you and your dad never connected. My primary connection with my dad was fishing. We loved to go out on the lake. He was in the back with the big motor, while I was in the front with the troll motor. As the saying goes, 'even a bad day on the lake is better than a good day at work.' Sometimes we didn't catch anything, other days we would bring enough home for a big fish fry. Those are the days I will try to remember.
Friday afternoon, I began work on reorganizing my closet, and continued work sporadically over the weekend. I found a few 'missing' items, along with some I didn't even remember buying. I'll be shipping a big box of clothes to one of my friends in Wyoming later this week.
Love always -- Jessica Rose
