    A friend gave me a book "Happy Life, Happy Wife" or maybe vice versa. I snuck it in the bedroom one night and was "pretending" to read it on Saturday morning when the wifey came out of the bathroom brushing her teeth. You could have heard a mouse fart.....

    My wife is no longer allowed to clean anywhere near my gear. Many of times I have been looking for something to pack before a trip only to have her explain perfectly what it looked like and say "Oh it was sitting there forever so I threw it away" That's the answer, don't know what it is, throw it out. Feel your pain

    I know the feeling.

    I got a couple of large bags of free apricots and I was dehydrating them in the oven. Went outside for awhile to work in the yard and when I came back in to check on the apricots, I found them in the trash. When I asked the wife why did she throw them away, she said becuase they looked all dried up.

    Is this just a bash on wife thread.....or can I throw my husband out there and the time he threw out my first set of whoopies that were in a brown mailer? What about when he found my box of different sized cans that I was saving to make wood/gas stoves....how about the Monster cans I was saving, what about the last 2 heiny pots in the state of Ohio....what about the 8 coffee cans, and then the scrap hardware cloth, and then...ok, I think you get the picture. AND IT WAS ALL DONE IN THE SAME WEEKEND!!

    Here's was the problem and the story behind it all. He is a total collector of crap. I mean really, really bad collector of just stuff, stuff and more stuff. I was upset because I had and have no space, no "spot" for my gear (still a huge issue). I was livid with him one day, said I was heading to the cottage for the weekend and when I come back some of the stuff better be gone. He thought he was doing the right thing....or so he claims and started throwing stuff away, problem was, it was all my stuff that I had been sticking here and there for projects. It had been "trash" weekend so I couldn't go out and dig my things out.

    His collecting of crap is still driving me nuts, but I'm scared to say anything now....but every now and then I find something in that crap that I can use now, then I hide it and keep it
