I took it with good spirits- I would never screw up that relationship with my plumber! I did have a friend who got involved with her electrician and also her mother's deathbed physician- and I had a graduate school student paint the house when I was single. He upgraded my education in music and books- took me to a car race-opera-movies- frat party. Very sweet guy. He became a psychologist and I ran into him at the "U" and we caught up- he married a basket case- maybe he cured her!
