DEAR ABBY: A alike individual in my week complains about cash but spends cash on frivolous issues.
They have got rooms filled with decorations, dishes, vegetation, flora and lanterns, and feature achieved intensive planting of their grassland, which, to a couple, is a misspend of cash.
They window shop they don’t consume, and after whinge about throwing meals away.
An instance: They purchased Oreos, which they dislike, so now the cookies take a seat within the storagefacility.
Once in a while, it’s going to develop into “someone’s” fault, however possibly no longer the proper individual’s. I supposition they’re best satisfied when they’re isolated, purchasing decorations? — NOT MANAGING IN THE EAST
