Mrs.E says it's necessary "just in case". 90% of the time it's only two of us in a 8000 sq ft house. I often feel like I live in a Sheridan. Of course, it's Mrs.E's house. I just live here. Eisboch |

Ah, but you see, there's a trick to this - perhaps you might want to attempt it. What I did was convince my wife that we really didn't need a big, twelve room restored late 19th century farm house and what we really needed was to buy a house that just happened to be for sale down the street - one floor - 2,300 sq ft. Her complaint was that the big old farm house could hold the kids, their SO's and grand kids "for the holidays and events". At that point I sprung my trap - I said let's keep the farm house, but "give" it to my son and his wife so that THEY could host the family for the holidays and "events". Point, set, match. :) Later, Tom Ah, but little do you apparently know of the possessiveness of Italian women. We still have boxes of cancelled Navy Federal Credit Union checks from 1968. When I learned that her hayburners can live to 30 years or more, I lost all hope and I fully expect to be buried in a 36 foot Grand Banks. Eisboch |
