LEAVE US ALONE!!!!

So I think all night Friday, that I will get to sleep in a little later on Saturday morning. Granted I would have to be up by 9 AM to get ready to head to Ttown for tailgating and the game, but that is another story. ANYWAY, Dan gets up about 6:40 AM to get dressed to go meet Todd so they can work on green fields. Ok, that is not too bad, I can go back to sleep when he leaves. HOWEVER, at 6:45AM our house phone rings and I am thinking ok???? I said Dan "who is it" and of all days..... A TELEMARKETER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT 6:45 AM ON A SATURDAY MORNING!!!! Oh I was sooooo mad, I told Dan to hand me the phone. I answer the phone, to hear the guy say "is this Dan Deavouuurs" ( he sooo didnt get the last name right so I had to throw those few extra vowels in there to emphasize what he said) I quickly told him " IT IS 6:45 IN THE MORNING, MY BEST ADVICE FOR YOU IS TO TAKE THIS NUMBER OFF YOUR CALL LIST!!!!" Thinking he would say Im sorry, he gets an attitude with me and ask was this the "Deavouuurs" residence...AGAIN! I said THANK YOU AND HUNG UP!!! Dan just looked at me and laughed! I understand that telemarketers have jobs and families, but there needs to be a starting time when they call ESPECIALLY on a Saturday morning!!!!

I remember growing up, my grandmother made the mistake of calling our house a few times before 8AM and we had to have a little chat with her about it and she stopped, but not...you better not call her before 10AM because she will still probably be in the bed!!!

ok...gotta get ready to go watch the CRIMSON TIDE!!!! ROLLLL TIIIIDDDE!!!!

Go to donotcall.gov and put your phone number in. The calls will stop I promise. Do it for all phone numbers you have. I only have a house phone for our house alarm now. I haven't had a home phone in 5 years. Only cell. Works great!
