Default So...how many is "to many"?

Ok

Last night I am in my side of the basement - picking up the
mess I've created over the last several months....fishing
tackle, tools, lumber, you name it.

SWMBO comes down to chat, and as she casts her eyes
around the room, she spies two of my sonars on the
work bench.

W/ just a hint of irritation in her voice, she asks "So how many
of those do you have now?" I answered up 4 (the Humminbird 200 for
the 16' boat, the Zercom RTS for the 12' boat, and my two ice
fishing sonars).

"Kind of over consuming aren't you..." was her parting comment
as she left.

Now - where does it end? Is she going to start counting my rods and
reels, the number of landing nets (4), the number of packages of soft
plastics I have?

Do I start counting her frying pans, her rubber stamp sets? How many
dresses and outfits does she need?

Where does the madness end?

HAHAHA!!!!

That happens to me too sometimes.
Helpful hint: Just remind her of her spending habits in a playful, "just
kidding", way.
You can both laugh and you can still get "lucky" that night!
A win-win!!
