Yikes, what is this door to door salesperson week!?! I just had a Jehovah's Witness stop here! At least he was a bit more friendly and not as scary looking, but still! Or maybe it's just that I attract all the wierdos! Actually I have heard that a couple ladies from church did buy that cleaner that the strange guy stopped by here selling. The one that was my age said that it was a girl possibly in her 20s selling it, and the other lady said that she felt sort of grandmotherly towards the guy that stopped at her house. I'm surprised that they let these people into their homes being alone and with everything that is going on now days.....guess I am just more paranoid.....but then when I am alone with other people's kids in the house I really am not going to take any chances!
Anywhoooooo......it's another chilly day here today, it's ten am and it's a whole 43 degrees. It's the homecoming football game tonight too, the fans will freeze sitting and watching that game! Not sure if we are going to go or not, we talked about going, but we also talked about seeing where another friend's son's team was playing tonight, about going to visit some friends in a neighboring town that we haven't really gotten to visit with since we left the other church (about a year and a half now) and about just staying home and going to bed early! Guess we will see what kind of a mood that K is in when he gets home.
The kids get out of school early today. Normally it's not a problem but it's right in the middle of naptime! And then there is the little matter of the homecoming parade. It wouldn't have been so bad; Monster is leaving early and M didn't realize, but Mr. C knows and asked me about it in front of both the girls on the way to school this morning if we were going. I said maybe, it depended on behavior, if M got to sleep right away (told him it was very important that M got a nap, especially with her cold), and how cold it was. M's dad brought her in a short little skirt this morning! I found a pair of K's sister's pants that she could wear. they are big and I have to roll them up some, but at least she would be warmer and it wouldn't be so bad with her cold. It can be such a cheesy parade that some years it doesn't seem like it's worth going to....we will see I guess.

No - you can not let people in.. I would absolutely freaking CRAP if Angela let in traveling sales people with Faith in her house!!!! Grandmotherly or not - you just remember that boy that let the BTK killer in the door, who then proceeded to kill his mother!! You don't answer the door if you don't know the person!! Darnit!
I agree, can not see letting a stranger into my house. I barely open the door, just enough to say no we're not interested now go on your merry little way thank you very much.
I am a drop in sitter for a state trooper's wife and her first thought was the same as mine, you never know if they have ether or something like that to spray in your face and then do who knows what to you.
Not while I'm alone and especially not with other people's kids in the house for sure! Some may call me paranoid, I call myself careful and most importantly SAFE!
