My family's signs of the present regression.

Jul 09, 2008 19:17

1. No TP.  We buy less but still have the same number of poops apparently.  We resort to clothes magazines, newspapers, and napkins from fastfood bags.
2. We might have 3 cars, but we decide which one to use based on which has a slightly higher likelihood of getting us there and back.
3. Maximize soap life.  Use it to the very crumb.  
4. No trash bags.  Instead we use empty large dog food bags to keep the trash in.
5. We still feel like we have many "things" because there's so much junk lying around.
6. Instead of a recliner, we combine the couch with a kitchen chair.  
7. Only one person in a house of 4 adults has a job.  And he's also the alcoholic.  Irony.
8. Cheese and bread are amazing in a hunger crunch.

But with all this, the reason we still consider ourselves rich:
---- the one commodity we never run out of:  sweet tea.

Seriously.
