Good Thing I’m a Chained-At-Home-Mom

So the dryer thing.
I had to call Sears to come out and fix my dryer. HAD to. I needed dry clothes, and I needed them yesterday. So I called, and the lovely customer service people told me they would come out the next day, and an automated message service would call me to tell me the time window to expect the repair guy to show up.
Did you know that Sears has a rollicking sense of humor? I had NO idea. Until yesterday.
My phone rings and the message tells me that the repair guy will be at my house between the hours of 8am and 5:30pm.
Umm, that’s a rather big window. That would make, say, working a rather difficult task. It might also make an “Afternoon Delight” rather difficult as well…
…okay, not as difficult as I first thought. 
Because the Sears guy didn’t show up until 6:00pm! Granted, he fixed my dryer, to which I will be eternally grateful, but DAMN! He didn’t even show up during the window Sears gave me!
Still, I have dry clothes now, and I’m satisfied. We all win!

I KNOW!! Dontcha love those windows. =( It seems like it would be pretty simple to show up sometime b/t 8:30 and 5.

Those windows SUCK! I am super-sweet to the person on the phone and have even had the repair guy call me from his truck within an hour of showing up so I could be here. And I’m not even that cute! LOL!
