Just as a side note, sometimes I DO say stuff like this - because I am dealing with a pushy salesperson who won't take no for an answer. I've discovered if I tell them I have to check with someone who isn't there at the moment, they really don't have much to come back with. Especially if I decide to have a little fun with them and say something like "I'm no longer allowed to write blank checks" or something goofy like that. So if you hear ME say it, don't be too concerned, lol!
LOL!! I do the same thing, and BELIEVE me, there is NOTHING I would need my husband's "PERMISSION" for...
there is that negotiating thing, which is why there is no dog yet, but... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
