I've learned that that the true cost of new acquisitions such as furniture or house additions is measured in terms of the length of my retirement sailboat - right now I may be at a net negative length. Oh well, I do like working!<br /><br />If ever your wife says "do you think this room is getting smaller?" don't answer, don't make eye contact and run like hell....<br /><br />Enjoy your painting, I'm sure working together on the project will only bring you closer<br /><br />:)<br /><br />Milesjmilesrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17961624317410579611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474187502213594872.post-85110073156076465832010-08-13T20:33:16.112+10:002010-08-13T20:33:16.112+10:00I have a similar situation with my backyard.
