You still keep me in stitches, WNYgal. You really should try your hand at writing humorous material that a greater audience can read. My thought is sincere.

Thanks, Goldie, but I'm afraid I'm a little too acerbic for most readers of domestic humor. As Ringo used to say, "I'm more of a mocker than a rocker."

Thanks, WNY, I'll check it out. How are the moving plans coming along?

Ugh. Now that the house is looking like it came out of Country Living, my husband has nothing to do but write music, play his guitar, shoot photos, & take cozy little afternoon naps. I, meanwhile, pace around with a duster in one hand & a spray bottle in the other, looking for spots to clean up. Plus, Buffalo is suddenly a "hot" market, if you can believe it. It's a good thing we're not in a hurry, although I do hate moving in the winter. We've done that twice now. Anybody looking to move to Annapolis, please let me know. I can't live with these stripped kitchen counters too much longer!{#emotions_dlg.crying}

Too funny! Isn't it interesting that once you 'stage' your home for sale, it looks so good you think about staying! I always loved WNY summers. That wonderful breeze from Lake Erie always moderated the temps, never too hot. It's good to know that Buffalo may be 'coming back' but it makes your job a bit tougher. I don't have any suggestions for DH however, as I'm the newly retired one taking afternoon naps in between bouts of 20 minute gardening.

Goldie is right, you're the new Erma Bombeck!

Erma was the queen. I'm afraid I'm more in the mold of Ian Frazier's "The Cursing Mommy". But you guys have got me thinking about a blog. How about "Everything's Coming Up Crabgrass (Oh, Where Did I Leave My Martini Glass)" as a working title?

WNYgal, your wry sense of humor and dry misplaced martini are already making me laugh.

Happy to help. There aren't many laughs to be had lately, I'm afraid.
