Imagine if it was Craigs.list!!!!
I don’t know if you guys are familiar with Freecyc.le. It’s like Cr.aig’slist but for neighborhoods and instead of selling items, you give them away. Last week I gave away a headboard. The woman was supposed to come pick it up at 6:30pm. I rushed home at 6 to straighten up and bring the headboard downstairs.
When I arrived, my 6 year-old told me that the lady had already come by. I was p-o’d b/c the house was a wreck….but at least my hubby just handed the board to her at the door right? Right? WRONG.
How about my husband was asleep when she came over, my son let her in the house! The story I got from my son and hubby is that when she first knocked on the door, my son tried to wake up hubby (who’d decided to take a power nap!!!!). Hubby said he thought he was dreaming…mmmk.
Hubby said by the time he realized what son had been saying, he jumped up out of the bed just as the lady was WALKING UP THE STAIRS ONTO THE LANDING IN FRONT OF THE BEDROOM!!!!
There are soooooo many things wrong with how this went down. First off, I reminded my son that he was not supposed to answer the door…let alone OPEN it!. He says he didn’t think it was nice to make her wait outside until I came home from work! My hubby should not be power napping with a 6 year-old roaming the house! AND FINALLY, what in sugar and spice is the lady coming in a house at the urging of a 6 year-old for? If it was me, I would be scared to just walk into some stranger’s house!
You are all invited to my house this week if you’d like to attend the following workshops hosted by your’s truly:
1. Stranger Danger 101
2. Power-naps…over-rated
3. Divorce for the Power-napper 101
4. Trespassers can be shot on site
I mean geesh, can you imagine if this was a Craigsl.ist transaction? I woulda been all over the news!
Now, looking at the picture, one might assume that it is a nice sized tote. NOT! When it arrived I was disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, I love the bag and am wearing it today but I swear, when I first tried it on it looked like a had shoved Barbi.e’s purse under my arm!!!
