My favorite old coat is falling apart and now I'm going to have to throw it out!
🤔
Or, sew it's seams ...
I guess that there has been a study of inheritance showing that heirs generally want nothing their parents have collected. I know that DD said that she told Grandpa that she only wanted his old Dodge pickup. He sold it during the last year of his life for $1000. Maybe he forgot ... DB asked for his posthole digger. I got his "Swiss army" knife because he handed it to me but it was only after he had been gone almost 2 years that I realized how useful it is! The offspring, generally, don't want our "stuff."
So, what are we doing with it? Counting the little garden at home, at one time I had as many as 4 different garden locations. Only one was a community garden where visitors from the park would wander thru and I didn't feel it was "safe" to leave things there. So, I had the "at home" hoses and sprinklers and hoses and sprinklers everywhere else. Even where the big field pipe and sprinklers are, I have a little sprinkler in the "windward" corner.
They don't last forever and begin to malfunction and at that point, I go buy a new one. What do I do with the old one? Keep it 😏. Well, it's not like it quit completely! Sometimes, adjust the pressure and it will work just fine. Why just today! I replaced one of the plastic jobs that has been questionable for the last couple of years with another that has been around here . Now, especially with the metal ones - I probable have 10 spares.
If you think that it's bad enough that your microwave is collecting data and the TV is spying on you ...
😯
... the vaccum cleaner has been gathering dirt on you for years.
