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-)
