Ma’am????

Confusion rains down on me so many times in the course of a week. And this last week or so, actual rain has tried to drown my brain on a few occasions also. We have missed all the tornadoes in the area so that is good, but now we really need some nice sunny days to dry things out!

Friday we were expecting a termite inspector to come and sign off on a report that we need for home closing. He was scheduled to arrive between one and three pm……..well you know how this goes when you are waiting for someone to show up in a certain time frame right? Much to my amazement, a gentleman appeared at our door, just a few minutes before one. I answered the door and said “we have dogs, so do you want to start inside the house or outside?” His reply was “Ma’am?????”….so I repeated my question, a little slower and explained that we would keep the dogs away from the area he was inspecting. His reply was “I’ll just stand right here ok?”…….light bulb over my head came on….and I said “you aren’t the termite inspector are you?” “No ma’am, I’m with a lawn service looking for work”…..I quickly said no thank you, we are moving soon and abruptly shut the door and started laughing hysterically. If I had only had a camera to capture his expression….!!! Poor guy must have thought I was a lunatic! Little does he know, not far from the truth!

We are still busy packing up and now just mostly waiting for a final departure date. We hope to be underway headed north no later than the end of April and sooner if we can manage it. We are anxious to get on the road and have this move behind us.

Oh and guess what….the “REAL” termite inspector never did show up…so will have to call somebody else on Monday. Good Grief!
