So they DO deliver themselves

One thing about my whole Avon endeavor, it keeps me very busy. New brochures go out every two weeks, and I try to deliver them on my lunch break, without eating up my entire lunch break (no pun intended), so it takes several days. Now that I am actually building a customer base, deliveries also have to be made. It's a pretty constant cycle of labeling brochures, delivering brochures, packaging orders, delivering orders. Which is fine, as that is exactly what I signed on to do. I'm definitely making a profit now, which is wonderful.

So, one might say, when I have a pile of brochures waiting to be delivered, "I'd better get those delivered. They won't deliver themselves, you know!"

Or will they?

I had a message on our answering machine from a nail salon that I have never heard of: "You left an Avon brochure here, and some of the people here would like to place an order..."

I looked up the place in the phone book (yes, I still use a phone book from time to time), and I had never left a brochure anywhere in the strip mall where the place is located.

Therefore, assuming that my brochures have not sprouted legs and begun delivering themselves, someone left one there. Maybe someone who found it on their door and decided that while they did not need anything, maybe someone else did? I think that's just awesome...If I found something on my door that I didn't want, it would go in the recycling, not to the nail salon. Then again, I don't go to a nail salon...

I don't know. Whoever did it, that was awfully nice. I'd thank you...But I don't know who you are.

My son watched The Flintstones via our cable company's on demand service yesterday.

If this statement from Fred doesn't date the show considerably, I don't know what does:

"Wilma! Where's dinner? When I get home, I expect dinner to be on the table!"

Heh. At our house, dinner is rarely on the table when anyone gets home, and hubby probably cooks a couple dinners more a week than I do. Fred would drop me in a heartbeat.
