Cottage - to be or not to be?
My husband wanted a cottage. Yes, so much that he bought it. Such a wonderful summer cottage is 10 acres overgrown with small bushes. Napoleonic plans - next summer to cut down everything, buy a log house, pour a foundation, dig a pond. The son, he says, gave birth, now we need to build a house and plant a tree. There was no point in interfering in plans - it would be offended yet, and in any case it is better than drinking beer, for example.
