DH is so oblivious sometimes

[ilovelamp]

& I watch way too much Forensic Files.

Our apartment flooded and needs new carpet. We have shop vacs going to dry underneath, and the carpet people are coming back in the AM to replace the pads underneath.

DH just told then he's working night shift but will be home in the morning before they get here, but I will be here in case they come early. Basically told these guys I'll be here all alone without him. He didn't even realize what he said until I pointed it out.

Perhaps I am too because this has never really concerned me. It's much easier for me to work from home than DH. I'm almost always here alone when someone comes to fix something.

That wouldn't really concern me either. OP, is it because he told them you would be home alone all night? People who live alone hire service people all the time, and aren't usually murdered the night before their appointment. It would be terrible for business, lol. 

[Muddled]

Yeah, I don't think this is a big deal. I imagine only one person is home during most service calls. And, yes, them coming for you in the middle of the night would totally crush their business.

Lol, I told you I watch too much Forensic Files mixed with my anxiety. Legit lol at murdering is bad for business.

It's not able being alone when they come for repairs, it's more about them knowing I'm home alone all night.

They're probably casing your house right now.

I feel like if someone *really* wanted to kill you, they could do so even with your husband home.

I had almost this exact line in my post and deleted it because I didn't want to freak out the OP. lol. But yes, if they're set on murdering that day, that murder will probaly take place whether one person is in the house or two.

Right, but like I said, they know that their customers who live alone are alone all night too. Pretty sure you can rest easy on this one.

Lol I know it's not rational but whatever.
