Door-to-Door Sales???

Can I admit that door-to-door salesmen creep me out?  I know that 99% of them are probably great people and they are just trying to make a buck...  But, there is something unsettling to me about having a stranger milling about when I am home, alone, with our baby Bewis.

I just get the idea that some of them are "scoping" out my neighborhood...  The one last night was selling some sort of home alarm or some-such.  Luckily Babus was there to handle it.  Today it was a new guy but the same company.  He was all "so, you have a baby there with you?  How old is it? Is it a little boy or a girl?"  Okay, I get those kinds of questions, but then he asked "How will I know when someone is home?  Do you leave the car out, or park in the garage?"  Pardon?  That just creeps me out.  I told him we ALWAYS park in the garage.  The last thing I need is a creepy dude (or chick) thinking that they can get up to no good because there isn't a car parked in the driveway.

Luckily, the guy across the street is a sheriff & most of my neighborhood is composed of retirees that are home and out in their yards all day long.  8-)

I guess I am just being paranoid, and it would never have bothered me...  Until I had Bewis.  Now I am HYPER aware.

I think we need a dog...  A HUGE, mean looking dog!  8-)

Dude came back AGAIN!!!  This time Hubby was home.  But the sales Dude was trying to get in our house.  Asking for a glass of water and whatnot,  No Way, guy!!!
