With Days Like These

True story.

I had just finished putting flea medicine on the dogs and wanted to wash my hands. I grabbed the glass oil/vinegar bottle that we keep our dish soap in, just like I do a thousand times per day.

This time, I must have knocked the edge of it on the sink because soap sloshed all over the sink, counter, and my shirt. I quickly dug around the cupboard under the sink for a container to hold the soap and found an old water bottle. Once the soap was contained, I cleaned off the counters.

I knew I didn't want to toss my shirt full of soap into the laundry. Glenna was upstairs in the shower, and no one else was home. I quickly took off my shirt and started to rinse it in the sink.

That's when the UPS man pulled up.

That's when I noticed a few windows were opened to let in the breeze.

I did the only thing I could do. I hit the deck! I squat-walked over to my sweater in the dining room and threw it on, then ran into my bedroom.

Fortunately, the UPS man was for next door.

I am way too tempted to go back to bed for the rest of the day.

JoAnna,
You are cracking me up! =)
Believe me, I TOTALLY understand this kind of situation. You wouldn't believe some of the stuff mom and I have to do (in the cause of keeping our house toxin-free). I'm sure the neighbors think we're NUTS! =0
Anyway, I also understand the feeling of wanting to go back to bed. Had a day like that on Tuesday. Some days are just like that...even in Australia. =)
Love ya,
-Joanna
