Georgysmom!!! *snort* I was gonna say husbands but since we can legally only have one (and who the heck needs more than one!), that wouldn't have worked. No offense intended to the guys who haunt KT.

It really depends on the age group that was surveyed. In my thirties, at the bridge table we discussed husbands and kids, forties it was colleges and tuitions, in the 50's the kids were gone and we were discussing our pets, in the 60's it was retiring husbands and retirement, now its aches and pains and hospitalizations, illnesses and deaths. The whole life cycle in a nut shell as discussed at the bridge table!

On the other hand, I struggle with leaving Georgy so I'll go with leaving pets or boarding them. I thought about the cardboard box when I was walking Georgy this morning but knew it would be too late when I got back. LOL Isn't it sad when the most pressing thing on your mind is the daily trivia Quiz!

Wouldn't have let "the one" get away.
