2. Tell us about your family. (Spouse? Kids?) DH and DS who is 19
3. Do you work or SAH? If you work, what industry? from home currently. I work for an autism non-profit
4. Do you have any pets? DS's beloved himmie died at Thanksgiving. He was the best cat ever. We're taking a break from pets. I'd like a dog, but my boys aren't "on board".
5. Own or rent? own
6. Home details? (ex. 3br, 3ba, xxx sq ft, style of home, etc.) boring. It's a smallish single center hall colonial circa 1986 that could be the poster child for the trends of that era. I do have some awesome moulding.

He buys mass quantities at Sam's and currently has it stacked on the floor in his bathroom. I have some in the vanities of the other two baths, but if his stash gets too small he'll buy more and I'll have nowhere to store it all. I considered handing rolls out for Halloween in lieu of candy.
