boil" she asserts. LET me tell
you what I'm up against. We
live in the country and I can't

all day and wants to rest at
night. He says he's tired when
he comes home and wants to
relax, not to go out cavorting
around the neighborhood, even
if we could find a baby-sitter.
which we can't. If he worked
nights instead of days. / could
get away a little in the day
time, but he says he couldn't
stand night work. Now what
am I to do?"
