Well, we made it to the Mall of America, and I had tons of fun at my first visit to Lush.

When I found out that Lush was coming to the MAO I told my husband that I wanted him to take me there for my birthday present

So I got a little early birthday present, but that’s ok.

I’ll tell you more about that later.

Right now we have to go get ready for the furnace inspector to come.

He would have been here already, but the company called the former owner of the house, instead of calling the people who actually live here and made the appointment.

And instead of saying “No i don’t own the house anymore, I don’t know why you’re calling me,” the former owner requested that the person who always did her inspections come out.

So the company called us - the people who actually own the house, and made the apointment - and told us that the former owner requested a certain person and he isn’t able to come out until tomorrow, so do we want to reschedule.

No not really.

What is wrong with people?

Are we really going to have to start telling people that they are only allowed to talk to us about the house before we do business with them?

Well, this is being continued a little bit sooner than I thought.

Apparently if you buy a house, and call Laney’s, and they’ve previously been to the house, you have to prove that you own the house.

I guess I better go whip out the mortgage to prove it to them.

Is it just me, or does that sound crazy?

I’ve never had to prove I owned a house before when I wanted a service.

I can see if you wanted to do a major renevation, or knock the house down or something.

But not just to check the furnace to make sure it’s working.
