What would you do if a total stranger pulled up in front of your house at 6:30AM with bicycle and gear, helmet on, socked feet in flip-flops, and knocked on your door? She didn’t just knock, she rang the doorbell, then walked around to the side of the house and knocked and rang the doorbell there, too. Said stranger then looks around your yard and notices the toys strewn about and realizes she must be at the wrong house because the person she was going to ride with that morning doesn’t have small children. As she realizes her embarrassing error and heads back to her car, her friend yells out her name from the house next door. Yeah. That was me. I was the total stranger who descended upon an unsuspecting house and scared the crap out of them. My friend assured me they’ll be OK … eventually.


Oh NO! I am sure you were quite embarrassed. But a great idea to fess up and share your story, that will relieve the burden of guilt quite a bit…. and in a short amount of time you will be able to laugh about it. Hopefully those neighbors will too!!
