Looks like another interlude while Peg mulls over the alternatives. Malvina Reynolds once wrote a song about this dilemma, back before she was known beyond a small circle of friends:

NO HOUSE
(Words and music by Malvina Reynolds © 1950 by Schroder Music Co.)

Oh, the cat has a house,
And the rat has a house,
And the dog and the mouse and the flea;
And the snail has a house,
And the whale has a house,
And they all have a house but me.

Chorus:

The sign on every building says:
"No children wanted here."
When I grow up the sign will say:
"Landlords kindly stay away."

Oh, the pig has a pen,
There's a coop for the hen,
And the bird has a nest in the tree;
The snake has a hole,
And so does the mole,
But there's no kind of place for me. (CHO)

Oh, the cow has a house,
And the sow has a house,
And Truman (President at the time) has a broad balcony;
There's hangers for planes,
Roundhouses for trains,
Garages for cars,
Taverns for bars,
And buildings for stores
With seventeen floors,
And money enough for three world wars,
But they couldn't build a house for me.

Peg, I share this computer with Charley Noble and I'm tired of him looking for relevant songs in my nicely organized mess. I'll post my own, thank-you!
Good luck in your search,
Landlady's Daughter
