Granted, a couple of those dates lasted nearly a week each.

We had been friends for a couple of years but our courtship was mostly by mail the preceding 9 months or so.

I say you more or less gave her the keys to the whole kingdom. Glad it worked out for you.

If she's the sort to calmly move into the traces and start pulling some load, you're more or less obliged to let her. It is just a matter of efficiency. She cannot represent you, or your household, without the tools to do so... so at least with me, that normalization comes quickly.

This is very true.  No illegal activity anyways; always to aid and assist.    happy77
