I'm having bookshelves built in my study and the anticipated mess requires me to shut down here for a few days.

While I'm gone, try to play nice, but if that's impossible, take video so I can enjoy the fracas later.

You really have your priorities straight. Don't you think putting down a floor of some kind over the hard-packed dirt and installing indoor plumbing is a bit more important than book shelves?

Maybe you should consider having bookshelves built in every room

Actually, she's got a three-holer outhouse in the back and has even stocked that with books and magazines you wouldn't believe. (The magazines come in pretty handy for a lot of things). The only problem with the three-holer seat is that the wood is getting pretty weak right now - maybe she out to think at least of replacing that before somebody falls in. But she's got some of the purest water in the USA available in front ... the only thing is you have to pump it yourself. Winter poses some problems, but she's got plastic jugs full o' water in the kitchen and as long as the big ol' pot-belly coal stove has heat comin' out of it ... she'll be doin' okay. I do worry about her nonetheless.

Gentlemen! Some respect, please. The lady needs a place to put all her survivalist literature, that's all.

She's a born survivalist or else she couldn't handle US!
