When I read your title, I hoped that I would read about someone similar, however, you don't want nice things coz your afraid of losing them, and I don't want them coz it's just more junk to store. I've given away most of my valuables to my children, and now I'm in the process of throwing away or giving away everything that I can't actually use. I'm tired of a lifetime of collecting stuff, some of it expensive and nice. It doesn't make my life any happier or better. I have many women in my family, so I know how important a cozy and attractive home is to them. Nice places to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there; I might scratch something.

I'd really love to live in a cave or a dugout of some kind. You can't burn it down; you can't tax it; no repairs; you can't get it dirty...er; no heating or cooling bills; the list is endless. And if I have a caveman party some night, and they try to trash the place, it only makes it bigger, and that could attract a mate. I might have to try and evict an ornery critter when I get back from holidays, so I'll try and make a habit of getting home before Winter sets in.
