Flower pot etc

(Image has nothing to do with subject.)
Story told by mom again. After she swept the bathroom floor, dad saw that it was wet and didn't go in. Instead, he pee into one of mom's empty flower pots, then emptied it into the laundry room sink. Yes he rinsed it, but still super gross. Sigh... yet another story I didn't want to know or hear about.

Besides that, mom asked him to fetch some corn starch from the basement and top off the container in the kitchen. He did it with water chestnut powder instead. The packages are so different, there is no way to mix them up. Did he forget which one mom said? But that seasoning container has never held anything else but corn starch. Mom tried to salvage the water chestnut powder and made some water chestnut dessert (just in time for some kind of birthday gathering at the church). But of course the dessert failed.

My aunt dropped off a load of my late uncle's old clothes. Whatever fits went to my brother and his gang. The rest, donation box. Dad was trying things out too. With his z= 2x belly there's no way anything could fit. (My uncle was slim.) Observation made by my sister-in-law: dad kept trying on stuff that he had already tried on. So, did he really want to get some of those old clothes, or just his hording nature, or did he simply couldn't remember which one he had tried on?
