Hey Paul! (How's your sitch?) Yeah, she really did say that. No, we're not in dire financial straits, but she's in charge of the budget and says this kind of thing all the time. Usually, as the day gets closer, she relents and agrees that we have a few bucks to spare for a scrap or two of food. Remember though, I got a bunch of kids that are going to be heading off to college fairly soon. We are both trying to be careful with the money.
