    My last two houses. Both times dh pushed me into buying houses that I knew weren't right. The first (bad) house we were able to sell and break even. It was just too much land and too expensive to...

    You know, that's true. When the older generation has passed (which I hope is a very long time from now) I'll probably never see her again, not that I see her now. If it weren't for a couple of...

    Thank you! Done, and now I can blissfully keep up with everyone without irritation and without starting a family feud. In another day there will be too many comments for me to even see her old ones.

    I'd love to, but her posts are just getting my goat more as time goes on. I guess I could think of it as an exercise in self-control, but it's somewhat galling to pop on to see the latest picture of...
