True story. It wasn't even 10 minutes after the annoucement that all the ladies, My wife and Daughter in law to be and not sure who the rest of the girls were (probable potential brides maids) went off to get their nails done, go for a Latte and shop. Okay I can see the nails part and Latte part, but shop for what? That was thursday night. well since then this has transformed: Wife decided the couple to be are going to need nice furniture for their apartment. So out goes our couch, bed, night stand, end tables, 2 dressers, wing back chairs and a bunch of other stuff. I in return said great, more room in this house to move around. Low and behold an Art Van ad shows up in with the newspaper yesterday, I get drug there today with hangover and all to buy new stuff to fill the voids in our house that is to happen. (they don't even have an apartment yet). Well to the tune of $14,000 yes you read it right, 50 months same as cash and we pay the sales tax gimmick sucked her in. I am getting replacement stuff for the perfectly good stuff she just gave the kids. As I type she is totally rearranging the house and measuring for fitment of the new stuff which is coming this Tuesday. Oh, She also wants new carpet for our bedroom since everything will be out of it. (I am still fighting this one). Also Now instead of going up north I will be cleaning out the garage to put the giveaway stuff into it. Some how I suspect that my snowmobiling for 3 months each year and my 3 trips out west and to the UP and Canada are somehow figured into how much she spent today on furniture. I told her count this as your Birthday, Anniversary and Christmas gifts for a while and...............................she laughed.
