Just arm yourself with plenty of knowledge now, and keep that mind of
yours active, and you won't need to listen to anyone else... ;)

Once winter sets in, the house will be more evenly heated, though,
right?  Just have to remember to bundle up properly for going out, and
everything will be perfectly fine... (she says, hopefully... [g])

That sounds like a fun time.  :)   My husband's brother's two boys were
born on the same birthday, three years apart...  I think my sister had a
second child born on the same day as an earlier one at least once... she
certainly had a few that were only a couple of days apart on the
calendar...  I share a birthday with one of my younger cousins... and
her parents were married on the same day the previous year.  I suspect
that it's more fun when there's some separation distance-wise, to
celebrate the same day... and even sometimes together...  :)  Of course,
it may be like being twins of a sort, too... just a few years apart.  ;)

 JK> planning to move in with her.. would be nice if it works out for them!

'Twould indeed.  :)   Much better than her going back to that sister of
yours that took such "care" of her...  :)
