The thoughts of MY wife going shopping with HER sister would scare the shit out of me.

For one, her sister if full of bright ideas and has no money, so guess who picks up the tab.

They can go out all day and the biggest expense might be the lunch. Both of them are pretty thrifty.

I need to spend the day clearing a spot in the garage for her car today anyway. Getting cold and don't want to be scraping off ice in the mornings for her.

Ol'Rexy ran out for some Howard's and some 0000 steal wool and was back home in a matter of minutes. That was the extent of my consumerism yesterday.

Well she got home and "we" put the tree up, and of course fooled with the lights for what seemed like hours!



Never did get the garage finished.
