you know yer poor when

you live in the forest and the bears don't even go through your trash can ....

Only one of you has ever been truly poor.

You live in a house where the first one up is the best dressed.

At a family event last year where some members were into eating naturally (whatever that means), we were served what look to me like a bowl of wild flowers laced with rocket.

you know yer poor

when powdered butter sounds like a good shopping choice
when cockroaches won't eat yer leftovers
when mosquito spray doubles as deodorant AND air freshener

at the lake, the ducks throw bread at you...

These are funny to me because so many fit right now!

The free Indian clinic I go to for everything cost around $50.00 in gas in my old 1990 Chevy truck making me think with other bills at times and the casino being so close. If I just eat a sandwich or something similar touching the paper plate (most of the time) I just brush off to reuse. And old bread i can’t eat is for my horses and goats😁.

i love the internet

When I was young I was poor.
But after decades of hard work, I'm no longer young.
