I melt down

When I open the fridge

And everything is on one shelf…

He stuffs it all in there

On one shelf…

I clean it once a week

When I open it

Seeing bottles on their sides

Dripping their contents…

Or sticks of butter Falling

To the floor…

There were four halved

Onions, 4 bags of celery

2 partially used and 2 new…

Pieces of bread out of the bag

And bags of cheese opened and

Scattered on the one shelf…

I keep the cheese in a plastic container

Today the container sat empty

On a lower shelf…

So Sunday morning I took

Back my fridge

Which I seldom open

Since he took over the

Kitchen upon retirement…

The main reason I don’t

Straighten it daily is

Because when he sees it stuffed

At his eye view he thinks

We have enough…

When it’s cleaned out

With things organized

He thinks he needs more..:

And off shopping he goes

To fill up all the gaps he sees…

Why there were 4 bags

Of celery (I cut up two

along with the onions

Zucchini and spinach and

Bokchoy and put them in a

Gallon bag and froze for soup…

Now the freezer is another

Problem.. but I can only

Face one Alamo at a time…

24/7 retirement has proved

To be a daily adjustment

Thank Goodness he still

Travels…

As I need a reprieve

From my

Short-order-cook retired groom…

My upcoming cruise can’t

Sail soon enough as I watch

Him make pizza since his

Pizza dough and lb of

Mozzarella along with

Some remnants of peppers

And pepperoni have now

Appeared in the clean

And organized Fridge…:
