Dont you know it.Originally Posted by Chicken lady
I have a long time acquaintance (wont use the word "friend" because she is currently driving me crazy) on whom I foist things having to do with our plant society. She is a whirling dervish of consumption. I mean, she wades into to every situation and grabs handfuls or armloads of stuff, be it free stuff or purchased. Papers, objects, plants, whatever--she grabs it all. And that is perfectly fine with me because I dont want it.
Unfortunately, she is "generous" and buys crap our plant society doesnt need. Then, someone has to transport it to storage. Thanks! not. I was happy that someone else said to her "now, you are going to store that stuff yourself, right?" when she purchased more useless stuff for our plant group last week.
I have not been to her house but I would bet $1,000 that it is crowded, unorganized, strewn with random things. I have never, not once in the 15 years I have known her from plant societies, seen one stem she has grown. I suspect she kills them all, throwing them around her porch or yard, forgetting to plant them. For her it is the acquisition that is key.
