Dear Ann Landers,
59 to do the marketing, fix supper, iron shirts, and scrub floors. The married girls in this office look beat and run-down at the heels. They are helping to pay for his boat, or a car, or fishing and hunting gear, not to mention liquor and other odds and ends. And then, of course, there are the in-laws. I could go on and on but by now you have the idea. I wish others would get it, too. Thanks for letting me unload.-Unclaimed Jewel By Choice

Dear Unclaimed,
The married girls are also married by choice. Not everyone wants a life in double harness. But if you haven't tried it, don't knock it.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
