Dear Donna,
Hope things are well with you, Tom, and the kids.
If you'll remember, last year I replaced several windows in my house---and they were the expensive, double-pane, energy-efficient kind. Well, this week I got a call from the window contractor, complaining that his work has been completed for a whole year and I had yet to pay for them. (Boy, oh boy, did we go 'round and 'round for a bit...)
But, just because I'm old doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid. So, I proceeded to tell him just what his fast-talking sales guy had told me last year:
"M'am, we guarantee that in one year these windows will pay for themselves."
There was silence on the other end of the line, so I just hung up and I haven't heard back from the guy. (Guess I must have won that silly argument.)
Well, gotta go! That nice young man from Sears is here to install the new freezer that will pay for itself in three years. (God, I love this country!)
Love,
Mama
