Hmmm, I should have your problems...



Yeah, really.

I had the "opposite" situation. Instead of getting two gals who "pay-to-stay," just about the time I was getting our system up and running, our youngest daughter gave us an "empty-nesters' house warming gift" of four children to raise right after retirement!! So instead of an extra $1000 coming in, we get an additional $1000 a month "going out"! To make matters worse, we had to buy a larger house which just happened to have much poorer acoustics than what was in the smaller one, plus we had to start all over again with larger receiver, speakers and TV set! Arrrrrrgh!!

There is a good side though. I really dig the kids, and we all kinda band together against Grandma and get to pick a good action movie instead of a chick-flick now and again!
