Newlyweds Cathy and Irving navigate the treacherous waters of couple-hood. From pampered pets to prying parents, they’ve got a lot to learn! Wedding or not, it’s still all about Cathy - she personifies the young career woman and her typical daily obstacles. Ice cream, panic attacks, stress and love are all in a day’s work. We read, we identify, we laugh. Who could ask for more?
Cathy is the Everywoman. She deals with diets, self-esteem, in-laws, and letting her husband know that she is the boss. Everyone can identify with her shopping, bills, taxes, planning for the future and coping with her husband’s incessant computer golf games. Whether you are a newlywed, single, or have been married for decades, all will enjoy the daily predicaments of Cathy and Irving.

If I was going to spend that much on a car, it would be a ’57 T-Bird.

So true, Cathy. And the salesguy is pretty accurate also. I think I should have been born decades before because I , yearn for the days when we were realistic and down-to-earth and we only bought what we could afford (I don’t have a problem with credit cards as long as you pay them off every month. It’s better than carrying around wads of cash.). And of course whatever we bought lasted forever because we could fix it ourselves. But I would miss my computer and the Internet, so that plan won’t work… Hmm, back to the drawing board…
Good morning, simpsonfan! Everyone else must be sleeping in. Today was my glimpse of the near future where I need to get up early for school again. The kids went off to camp today (a break for all of us), so everyone is gone. Finally I’ll have time to get some things done! After I read the comics, of course… ;-)
Good morning, Aaron and Susan!

NO WAY would I spend $50,000 on a vehicle, ‘cept for what simpsonfan2 said. That’s asking for a whole lot of trouble. But guess what, people do. Makes me want to slash their tires and deflat their “in your face”-ness.
Morning Susan arriving sooner than later. Morning lightenup by a whole hour. Hello AnonaMona, living in the land of my ancestors. I’m French-Canadian but our family arrivedin Quebec Province via Nova Scotia via Scotland over the course of 800 years.
When I got up at 7:30, LMB was sitting beside my bike, on top of his/my backpack. I took him into town and back. Now he’s got a grin that just won’t quit. Life is good. :-D

You could get four of my car for that price, and I bought it brand-new!

My first car was ‘74 Dodge Charger. It was three years old. When I got ready to buy a new Charger it cost me $5 ,800.I cried because it cost too much. (Sigh, those were the days my friend, I wished they’d never end.)

No Mom! today? [whiimper] I even saved her a shortcake from last night. Oh poo!
KFG me. And NOT A CHANCE HONEY! :-D (Kinda like way back when when you discovered that Billy and I are already taken). Sorry — disappointing you twice is kinda rude, but the Camaro is mine mine mine. And sometimes Mom’s but usually mine mine mine.
