Sitting in the family room with Wolfie, Drew, and Aaron the conversation of the house remodel comes up. I seize the opportunity to plant a seed with Aaron, "...and we'll be remodeling the garage into a bedroom for you and Jr." I think he's known it was coming as his retort was ready with challenge in tow, "I'm not going anywhere without a fight and no one in this house can 'take' me!" (He's been working out - so, he is right...)
He offers his suggestion: Wolfie can have the remodeled garage, Jr can move back into the sunroom, Drew can have her bedroom back, and he gets to stay right where he is until he's FIFTY years old! We laugh. He's serious, but trying to downplay it with a light-humor (very light).
I ask Wolfie if he would be interested in the remodeled garage and he replies that he doesn't care "...as long as I get my own room." So I assure him, "If you end up in the remodeled garage, I'll get you a big flat-screen tv to go with it!" Sold!
Still, I'm leaning towards putting Jr in with Aaron. They can share! They need to be inconvenienced! And if they would both just go get a damned job then they wouldn't be home in their little, shared miserable bedroom! (evil laugh)
