What Delivery Men Really See


It’s a little rainy and cold here today for the first time as we start the swing into fall so I decided to go to the store to get ingredients to make some yummy chili. Since I was making some for myself I thought I would make some for my sweet, exhausted cousin who recently gave births to twins and also has a one year old.  Her life makes me tired just thinking about it.

Please keep in mind that I have only been home a few days from Greece and still have a little bit of jet lag lingering when I tell the rest of this story. So I have all the burners on the stove going at once, and my daughter picks today to start potty training so I am running back and forth between the kitchen and the bathroom. (Don’t worry I am washing my hands as that sounds gross).  I start to get super hot as I dressed in layers today so I take off my sweater and just have on this skimpy bra top as I start to dice the onions.  The onions always make me cry but this one was especially bad today and one of my girlfriends once told me if you wear your sunglasses while cutting it won’t make you cry. So I put my sunglasses on and just then the doorbell rings. I feel like a million things are going on at once so I don’t think twice on answering it.  I grab the package from the UPS guy, as he looks me up and down with the silliest smile on his face. As soon as I shut the door my husband walks in the door and takes one look at my little top, sunglasses, knife in one hand, and a package in the other and says, “Nice look babe.” I shrug, “ Well the UPS guy seemed to like it.” I say. He looks at me with a laugh and says,  “You went to the door looking like that?” 

You betcha! (I am sure the UPS guy has seen stranger things)
