    I wonder if the doorbell rings as they finish reading the postcard? I'd love to read more of this story. Loved it.

    And Honey rejoiced . . . not. Now he's moved on to "you two will talk all night and spend money all day. Sheesh!"

    I think I know that man!

    Well done, Jim!

    I guess Sis hasn't become too high-falutin' since she's lived in NYC awhile...she'll still come and visit her brother and sister-in-law. They better get to cleanin'!

    I'm happy that sis is coming home from NYC...wonder why she's coming home, and where does she plan to live now? Great job!

    At least she posted the card. In this house postcards are handed to me as the writers walk through the door!
