his year I’m determined to keep all my resolutions. That’s because I’m


only going to make one: “I resolve never to sell the house for Wilbur again.” Right after Christmas Wilbur crossed the mountains and went to a job interview. He said it was a promotion so I thought I’d come up with a wonderful way to celebrate getting a new job in a new place by selling the house. I began by cleaning out the basement and doing the laundry, then I called the newspaper and put in an ad. Wilbur came home a day early, which

was both good and bad. Good because I got rid of a family with 12 kids, and bad because his ears turned red. The next day Wilbur called the

newspaper and took the ad out. He also called all the people on the list I’d made who were interested and told them the house was not for sale. One man said he would sue us for false advertising and Wilbur offered to send me over to smooth it over. I think he was kidding, but nothing ever came of it. Finally, I had enough of the red ears


and huffing and puffing and apologized for everything I could think of. Some of what I apologized for Wilbur knew about and some of it he didn’t. That was good and bad. Good because I got it off my chest, and bad because it didn’t help get his ears back to normal. Finally I got him to talk about the job


and whether or not we were moving and he said he’d turned down the job because of me. That made me feel good and bad. Good because he thought of my needs. Bad because of what he said next. “I told them I couldn’t possibly take a


management position. I couldn’t even manage my wife, whom I’d been married to for 20 years.” And, that’s when I made my New


Year’s Resolution: never sell the house for Wilbur again. He doesn’t appreciate it and he looks awful in red ears. ♥
