When Mama says no, just ask daddy!




So yesterday Matthais opened the door to some salesman. I usually "screen" the people at the front door because I can see their reflection in my bookcase therefore I can see them without them seeing me. So, he gives me the spill about how wonderful his product is and it can clean this and that. And yes, it's a wonderful product, I would love to have it on hand. However, at $34.95 a bottle, I'll pass. So after several "no thanks" he finally leaves and heads over to the neighbors. I see him across the street as I head out with Owen for my jog. He is still there when I get back and Adam is home now, working on the sprinklers. He leaves my neighbors, spots me and waves Hi and notices Adam. He comes back over and starts giving Adam the spill. I go into the house to wait until Adam sends him away. But, he doesn't. Next thing I know Adam is coming into the house asking for the checkbook! WHAT?!?! Well, we are now the proud owners of a bottle of Avanage! Now I don't have any excuse for a dirty house....crap.
