My parents always arrive at Sunday School 30 minutes before the class starts.

My dad will need a new lawn mower, but then decide most new lawn mowers are over priced.
So he’ll buy the cheapest one possible and then spend hours and money trying to keep it functioning. Then when it finally stops working very good, but still runs, he’ll buy a second shitty lawnmower and continue the process.
I just bought a brand new Honda self propelled because this is the last year they are being made. Less than $500, love it.
My old one (15 year old Honda) still starts on the first pull, but the tires are bald, the blades need to be replaced, and the gears in the self propel gearbox are slipping. Too much shite to fix. But the engine is bulletproof.

My FIL lets his trash bags pile up in the garage because “the heat will make them smell and attract animals if they’re in the outside garbage bin.”
But he has dementia, so….

Explain in detail health issues and upcoming procedures then rebuff any concern or follow up/check in questions. it's the shell game of death and I don't get it.

The box of silverware that no one has ever used and rarely seen.

Keep items in the refrigerator from the Clinton administration.
Buy meat just cause it’s on sale and have enough to feed an army.
Drive 15 miles past several closer gas stations to save .02 a gallon.
Use grills and other items long past their lifespan to avoid spending a few bucks on new stuff.
Curse at the remote instead of ordering a replacement or simply changing the batteries.

We have the same shite. We appointed the youngest sibling to be the monitor and spread the updates to everyone.
I can’t tel you how many conversations we have had with my mom or dad that started out with, …… when we got back from the hospital. Leading us to say, well when did you go to the hospital? Reply:I think it was about two weeks ago, or maybe three.

takes ziploc bags (a theme, it seems) with her out to eat to put most of her food in. (only eats 1/4 of the food) ummm, they have boxes for that.

She washes plastic yogurt containers out and stores food in them. Open her fridge, and you'd think she had 50 containers of yogurt in there.
Sounds like my childhood. Open the fridge and pull out a country crock container you never knew what it was going to be. Leftover spaghetti? Maybe. An extra burger patty from two days ago? Possibly. The last of the homemade soup? Hopefully
It damn sure wasn’t going to be butter though.

My mother still tries telling me how to drive
Also constantly grabs the OH shite handle
So I try to let her drive when we go somewhere
I don’t need to have her license taken away just yet

Grandma used to wash and reuse Ziploc bags, and she was no where near poor. I never understood why she put the effort into that.
I do it because I am poor. She does it because she was probably poor once.

My Mawmaw would iron EVERYTHING. I’m talking underwear, socks, white tees. She worked full-time, too so it wasn’t just boredom.

And save old checkbooks.

Went back to bathing on Saturdays. Sponge baths during the week.Their home is 100’ from the sewer main. They don’t flow enough water to flush everything to the main. Pretty soon they have a blockage. Have a plumber on speed dial.
They don’t believe the plumber when he tells them why this is happening.

Same here. A drawer of silverware full of really nice silver that gets twice a year, along with 2 cabinets full of dishes that get used twice a year at a table in a room that gets used twice a year. Actually, the table gets used more often... it's where the puzzles get put together.

I save the lunch meat plastic containers and use those for storage.
