<DIV><FONT face="Lucida Calligraphy">Another thing you may consider is how long
you plan to live in this 2-story house. Until you're old yourself?
If so, then you will come to hate those stairs as you get older. I sure
did! LOL. If you plan on living in it just a few years, that's a
whole nother kettle of fish. However, I do agree with Ann....I'd carry the
old boy up and down. I've done it and it's a pain in the patoot, but a lot
less painful than guilt. Plus, the lifting and hauling gave me great
muscle tone in my arms and shoulders. ;o)
