Well, ferrets showed up here 18 years later but I'll admit
it *did* turn out to be a very nice trade.

Actually, all started going bad when she wanted to have
another baby and I was deadset against that. We already
had two young girls. To add another would just lower
everyone's standard of living.

So she found someone else and had her 3rd baby. Then she
divorced him too after a few years.
