mr. oblivious, how do you not notice?????

when i ordered the annie sloan chalk paint last wednesday i figured it would take at least 

five days to get here.  so i felt safe that it would come either today or tomorrow.

what i didn't remember is that don only works a half day on mondays because of his 

golf league....

oops....

he doesn't leave for golf until 4:00 pm.

the ups truck arrived at my house at 3:40 pm.  

mr. oblivious was in the backyard watering the garden,

 in full view of the driveway ->>>

and totally oblivious to the sound of the ups truck stopping at the end of the driveway 

 and of me walking to the end of the driveway.  so i took the box from the driver 

 and walked it right back up to the garage.  

in full view of mr. oblivious.

was he so involved with his impending golf game that he didn't see me?

or did he see me and roll his eyes into the back of his head and figured it wasn't worth 

the inquiry?

i actually think it was for former.  but who cares?

IT'S HERE!!!

 was shipped the same day that i ordered it because i got an email stating so.  i ordered from virginia at the southern institute of faux finishing here.  

 there is nothing like personalized customer service. nothing!!

in the box was this envelope and inside the envelope was this cute little triangle folded note.

 i love it when something is handwritten

addressed to me and signed.  in pen!! it may seem like an insignificant thing, but that is the 

kind of service that keeps me coming back.  thank YOU, virginia!!!

 austen had a baseball game tonight and i didn't get home until 10:00 pm. 

so the fun will have to wait until tomorrow!!!

i can't wait!

(no, this chair was not painted with the chalk paint) 

i will have a post about this chair soon!
