I don't know what the answer is. When my grandparents came here they had nothing. They lived in an area which was not good but whatever they were able to get was maintained and treated like gold. Nothing was new but it was always in order and clean. Spotless. My grandmother had the same dishes and furniture for as long as I can remember, but it was always orderly and clean...everything. Her house smelled like soap. She always had a garden with lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans and beautiful flowers...oh, and the best peach and cherry trees. Having one square foot of dirt that was your own was like being a king...she had no idea that she lived in a bad area.
