Stalker
The house sale is going through once again. Please forgive my scepticism at this stage but the whole process has been a bloody nightmare and terribly stressful for Debra. We have had the sale fall through twice through no fault of ours and incompetence from all quarters that would make a Monty Python sketch seem realistic.
Well I had better explain the title of this blog. It is somewhat misleading to be honest as describing Debra as a stalker would cause her to grab my goolies and swing me around the room. "she's a stalker... she's a STALKER!!! ;-)". Of course she isn't but she could have been mistaken for one yesterday if she had been just a few seconds faster along a certain road.... read on it will become clearer.
The house sale details dropped trough the letter box and onto the mat early on Monday morning, which was another step toward our ultimate goal. Within the letter was a form showing the full postal address of the purchasers, which by coincidence is very close to where Debra works. Is it beginning to sink in? She decided to take a drive past the house, just to have a nosey as to what type of people were buying from us. What you can glean from a swift drive by is beyond me but there you go. She drove slowly along the road taking in the area and the houses until she came to the address in question. Right then a car reversed from the driveway of said house at breakneck speed and almost slammed into Debra's car. Thankfully an accident was narrowly avoided and both parties drove off, one oblivious as to what had just happened and the other shaken and definitely stirred! Debra telephone me and relayed the occurrences as they had happened. I informed her that if an accident had occurred she would have had to pass her details to the woman who would have just picked up off her doormat and read the same house sale pack with our home address details inside. Now that would have taken some explaining!
How disastrous it would have been for the house sale to fall through again due to curiosity.
All is well, the house sale is still going through and Debra is avoiding certain roads in the vicinity of her work area thank goodness!
iPad 2
As for the iPad 2..... I am a sad gadget freak that just has to have one of these amazing devices, trying desperately to justify the expenditure to myself and failing to do so ...so far. I am sure by the time they go on sale in a few weeks time I will have convinced myself that the Mangini household will not be able to function without one.
Wish Me Luck
