Even Lucy Can't Make This Stuff Up

I am living the "I Love Lucy" show. Only I don't know what to call my show.

I Love Aven?

Gg Loves Aven?

Gg Tries It Again?

What Qualifies You to do THIS?

Do You Have Credentials?

So on Thursday I had two events planned. A friend of mine from home who now lives in Colorado Springs was coming to visit in the morning through early afternoon.

Then in the afternoon a furnace guy was coming.

Big day for Aven and I.

Well at 1:30 as my friend exits the furnace guy enters.

Perfect timing.

Then ten minutes later I put Aven down for a nap.

I decide to make an appointment for myself in Iowa when I return. Easy right?

Well, I get put on hold.

And hold.

And hold.

I'm getting nervous for I just know that Aven will awaken and the furnace guy will be done all when I actually get to talk with a human.

Guess what?

Aven wakes up.  I got to get her with my phone on speaker in tow.

We play in the crib, waiting.  On hold.

We come downstairs and I put her in her play area and we wait.

The furnace guy comes up the stairs. He carries stuff outside. I know he is going to be done.

I'm still on hold.

He comes in the room and I tell him I'm on hold and that as soon as a human comes on I'll call her back. No sooner have I said the words than a human speaks. She delivers the information quickly and the furnace guy waits patiently.

Then he wants to show me what he did.

Aven and I go with him.

She is suspicious. She looks and looks at him. He doesn't smile. (Who doesn't smile at a cute baby?) As he's talking her bottom lip begins to quiver. (Remember how she can detect karma?)

So we go back upstairs and I remember the fine art of signing papers while holding a baby.

The furnace guy left and I breathed a sigh of relief.

Was it time for wine??????
