My niece and I email back and forth, sometimes several times a day depending on her computer access. Nothing profound, usually funny cat pictures and the like, but last week I stopped responding when I got distracted dealing with Adventures-In-Homeowning!(tm) I apologized for the radio silence and reassured her that everything was okay, it wasn't a big deal, though naturally I'd rather spend money on books than on fixing things.

Her takeaway from all that was that I wouldn't be able to buy new books. Tearfully she went to her mother "Your sister isn't going to have any new books to read!!!! We must send her some!!!" Attempts to reassure her that the book budget was intact, and anyway my TBR stack would fill a bookcase were ignored. Instead my niece is going to pick out something for me to read, and then send it to me via Nook, since that way I'll get it immediately.

Priorities. We have trained her well.
