.............we only want nice things--and they better be clean,

.............box things nicely and use hangers for clothing".

.................then...CLICK.....no goodbye, no kiss my grits, nothing......

I figured since St Timothy IS the patron Saint of gastro-intestinal problems,
that perhaps she was overdue for a trip to the white porcelain throne.

Was going to call back and meekly ask which day / what time
the Truck would be there........BUT........I got laughing so hard.....
.........then the image of "Sister Demento" patroling the halls .....
...................with ruler in hand .........filled my mind.

That dear sweet lady was doing her best.. ..God Bless her.
