addresses, at the current one since the late 1980s. I live at my
parents as sub-tenant, that is simple less expensive and less work,
and they have the space and are delighted to have company ant that someone
is here when they are traveling. Which idiot actually came up with the idea
of abolishing multiple generations living together?
