When the prima dona landscapers only cut and blow, the listing real estate agents sometimes have to lend a hand before an open house. As you can see from my "happy" real estate partner/ wife/boss' look on her face I probably should not have been offering "constructive criticism" on her weeding techniques while backing away and heading for "happy hour" (leaving her her alone) .....I thought I heard something like "you just wait". But I figured that comment was referencing what was coming later that evening AKA "date night".....Oooops was I wrong!!! The following day, when leaving the office and heading to the home to make sure all is well and ready for eager buyers, my partner had this mischievous ....maybe even evil grin on her face as she was calling out "Good Luck". Well...I pulled up to the house and it looked immaculate, the flower beds were perfect and all ready for ths soon to be open house.. I was beaming and whistling a tune till I opened the garage door. And there it was- a pile of debris about waist high covering most of the garage. When I called my beautiful wife/boss and asked about the huge pile of stuff (actually I said something else that starts with S and ends with T) she said "Well you didn't expect me to get my clean and beutiful car dirty with all those weeds and s**t). Being the dutiful partner she is she said she'd be right over to help me load the debris onto my clean truck After a couple hours she finally pulled up (her hair freshly cut and blown and nails shiny) and with a smile on her face said "you just wait". I did and it was all good on the night after "date night".
