because you are wide awake at 4:45 a.m., so you get out of bed and go downstairs to read Mrs. Pollifax, talk to dh when he gets up which you never do because he gets up way too early to go to work, and then you clean your office and whatnot, and 11 you're still in your shortie p.j.s because you've just been busy but you have just washed your hair...THAT will be the day that the exterminator shows up, unannounced, to spray the house and yard.

That is all.

the landlord! This happens almost every time. I wear make up, do my hair and try to dress nicely. The man has never seen me without sweats, a pony tail and no make up. I always joke that he won't recognize me if he ever comes over and I am ready(not to him though!). :)

That's the day that dd's friend's mom (who thinks homeschooling is a bunch of hooey) shows up to drop off snacks for the girl scout meeting.

And don't you just love Mrs. Pollifax!!!

is the night the pastor from the church you've been visiting comes for a house call - and you decide to come upstairs to see who dh is talking to. Without a robe.

yup.

BTDT.

ONE day? You're better than me. I think me constantly being in my PJs is the reason my UPS guy started ringing the doorbell and running away ;)

even if I'm not thinking quite clearly, at least I'm dressed...

LOL.

One day I had been schlepping around in my jammies but had washed my hair (ok, that's twice for schlepping), and I heard the mailman put mail in the mailbox. I waited a few minutes, so that I'd be sure he was gone before opening the door. So when I was sure he was gone, I opened the door, in all my jammy/wet-head glory, and he was there, setting a box on the front porch. Poor man.

Yup. That was my "exercise in humility" night -

Or is that humiliation? :D

Add all that into living in the church parsonage, where people feel free to drop in at any time! They may be dropping something off for someone else to pick up (?), or just needing to use my bathroom!!! (Which is never clean when someone drops in!) I am very happy to be out of the parsonage!
