Me: Honey, I'm going to Menards in the neighboring town to pick up supplies for a new Back Fence. Do you want to ride along?
She: Sure, if we have a few extra minutes there's something I want to check on.
Me: OK. As long as it doesn't take too long because I want to start the replacement fence project today.
She: Oh, it will only take a few minutes.
One new bedroom set and two hours later I'm back home. I think paybacks for buying a new bike last year were finally cashed in. If Mama is happy, we are all happy.
Another valuable lesson for others on TOAK. Beware.

Yep, we go through our seasons. I really think she has some depression issues (not sure how to describe it) but they come and go and I just weather the storm and torture you guys with my bellyaching
Stan, let me know the dollar to sex ratio so I can see if I can swing it for Christmas

That is true. Some days you win, some days you lose.

Can't believe we are almost through August. It'll be Halloween before we know it and then onto the other holidays. My Pop is going to come up to visit in his RV around Thanksgiving and stay through Christmas. That ought to be fun. Gotta find a place for him set up camp where it is not too expensive. He doesn't want to intrude on us (which he wouldn't be) by staying with us or out in front of our house. That may also change by the time he gets up here. Sure hope I can petition the HOA Royalty for a variance so he can stay more than 72 consecutive hours in a 7 day period...a rule they just adopted

Evening, Ken.
Mark that would be nice if you could get a variance. Since you've been to a few meetings, maybe you have a feel for how draconian the board is before you go hat in hand.
