11. They try to pressure you into the visits because then they get paid

May 2021

I'm still hefting 40lb bags of water softener salt from the shelf to the cart to the car to the basement to the barrel. And 40lb bags of bird seed with slightly fewer steps. I trim and cut down smaller trees and take care of a MASSIVE front lawn and back lot. Rototill and plant gardens, all by myself. I'm painting the walls in my house, too. So, unless they want to pick up a paint brush, saw, rake or shovel, or mow the lawns for me, their visit will be of no real benefit, to me.

And I know the house snooping is the real reason for the visit. I'm currently in the process of redecorating and updating my house. By year's end it will be a whole different place. Hopefully.
