I don't know what I'm having for dinner. Hubby went to the store to buy it. He's cooking because I've been doing laundry. Whatever it is, it's a win/win for me!

Sounds beautiful! I should probably qualify my last statement with "I think sheds I can AFFORD are tacky."

My hubby is a cheapskate. There would definitely be a tacky shed in my yard if I let him build one. I love him but sometimes he makes me go hmmmm

They should come with an operating manual.

I'd never divorce him because I wouldn't want to go through adjusting to another one.

(Notice, I was kind in that statement. I resisted the urge to say "train" another husband. )

It was an aluminum shed from Montgomery Wards in its original incarnation. I painted it. My DH put up trellises. I planted Caroline Jessamine to grow up over the roof. We even had rockers out there. Although I say it myself, it could have been on the cover of Country Living. Someone told me the woman who bought our house uses it as her art studio.

DH, thankfully, hates "tacky" and "cheap looking". It's one of his best attributes. You want me to have him give your DH a call?

MM you've got me wondering what I'm going to watch tonight. DH is still out of town. I'm thinking I may start the "Jewel in the Crown" I got from Costco. (Thanks to you.) I don't know how it can happen that there are dozens and dozens of cable channels and there is nothing I want to watch.
