Bargain House, Not Quite Ready to Make Its Debut

Tuesday, I asked Hick to get some pictures of our newest purchase (as of TODAY), Bargain House. He drives by that area on his way to the Senior Center, where he was going to deliver presents to the people who also have their meals delivered.

"Be careful you don't get bit!" I said, meaning by pets, but with an uneasy realization that it could be by a person, since that one lady last year started ranting about her neighbor getting a bigger present. As if Hick can see inside to know what the gift is.

"Heh, heh! I won't get bit! I'm just the driver. My buddy is the one who gets out to deliver the gifts. I'll sit in the car."

Which made me wonder if it's the same buddy who got bitten in the armpit by a dog too tall for the fence, while delivering meals last month.

Anyhoo... Hick had driven by Bargain House the day before, just to see if people were still trying to get inside from seeing the listing, which has been coded as PENDING, but is still online.

"I didn't see nobody there, but the ladder was gone out of the back yard. And it looked like something had been drug across the back porch. I can't remember what was there that was big enough to do that. I tried the doors, and nobody can get inside."

"Get me some pictures. Outside and inside. It's not that big."

"I don't want to do that right now, in case the seller comes by to get some of their stuff. That might be where the ladder went."

"Oh. Well. It's just another day or two."

I'm sure you're just as eager as I am to get a peek!
