I love this one Sylvia. It has wit and irony and charm and I have to say, I so much prefer you and your spendthrift love of life than your mean Scrooge-like sister who will go to her grave and leave all the money she has 'saved' to her relatives. love, Allie xxxxxxxxxx
For more and more people, everyday's a rainy day. Good write, Sylvia... point well made! ! Brian
You have a treasure trove of wonderful stories. This one is especially enlightening. Take care. Love, Sandra
The rainy day funds were never there, because every day unfortunately was a rainy day. That's just the way it is for some people.
