Baby Kitty

Today I was reading a book to my twins. It is a lift the flap book called "Pets." It has real pictures of household pets and Brooklyn started to say Baby Kitty. It is so cute. She says a lot of words, but she has never really put two words together. Well then she knew that she was really on to something and so she kept saying it over and over again. So when Shane came home for lunch, I told her to say baby kitty for dad. She looked at him and said "NO!" Isn't that how it always goes?
The Schwan man comes to my house every other Tuesday. He was scheduled to come yesterday. I watched him go to my mom and dad's house. I watched him to go to my grandma's house. I waited for him to come to my house. Nothing. Well I was going to make lasagne for dinner last night and when it came time to start cooking, I didn't feel like it. So I decided that I wanted that Schwan man to come and I was going to get me some chicken cordon bleus from him for dinner. So I called my grandma and got his cell phone number and called and left him a message that I wanted him to come to my house. Well he didn't call back and so I had to make tacos for dinner. Well he called me back while I was cooking and said that he would stop by, and that he would be here after a little while, not very long he said. Well I wanted to get some ice cream to go with my brownies that I had made too, and I thought well he will probably be here after dinner and that will be perfect. No, I was wrong again. He didn't show up until like 8:45! I was in my jammies, I had rubbed all the mascara off of my eyes. And do you know what he told me? He said that he had skipped my house on purpose because I bought something last time he was at my house and he didn't think that I would buy two times in a row! What? Is he a door to door salesman? If he has the opportunity to make a sale, don't you think that he ought to give it a shot? I thought that I would like this new guy, but I am starting to miss the old schwan man, the reliable one, who would never have messed up my dinner plans or my dessert plans!

Stupid Schwann man...It's a cardinal rule of salesmanship that you never say "no" for your customer. Maybe next time he will not be so foolish. And isn't Brooklyn smart? She just doesn't like to be put on the spot is all.
