I am sorry, but I had to laugh. I felt like I was reading a story about my husband. Mine drives me nuts with his inability to throw things away. He eats the oldest food, because he hates food waste. If he finally decides to get rid of something, he tries to sell it. We hold onto it for FOREVER if it doesn't sell. Every sock with holes is kept for rags. How many rags does one possibly need? Unlimited apparently. 😂
