Indeed. And so you think and hope- that you are not easily replaced. <g>

On a slightly different thought, my wife had been previously married, and
had left her ex because of some extra-curricular activities on his part.

Now, when I screw up on something (fairly large screw-ups) she is quick to
remind me, saying, (I got rid of one, already. I can do it again, just as
easily) This, with a smile on her face.

I think (hope) she is joking on that one, too! <g>

My now ex was a tad more mercenary. Not long before I retired from
the military she and my children were "joking" about how to bump me off.
She also told me I had to sleep sometime. I guess a couple hundred
dollars SGLI was a bit tempting.
