The Window Nazi

So I have decided that I live with

The Window Nazi.

I love open windows.

I see...

Curtains blowing in the breeze.

Summer Smells.

Fresh Air.

JWS

aka

The Window Nazi.

He sees...

HUMIDITY.

So we have a difference of opinions.

Summer has been rough this year.

To say the least.

Air conditioning units that are loud,

and that cause my chest and head to clog up.

I have spent nights in the spare bedroom,

ceiling fan running,

windows open,

trying to breathe.

So today...

he is not at work.

For those of you that don't know...

we work together.

Since

he was not going to be there,

I took the opportunity to open everything up

and get

AIR!

No problem,

I'll close it all up long before he gets back and he'll never know.

But,

I got busy and forgot.

Oops!

Apparently a big oops in the life of

The Window Nazi.

He complained,

he whined.

He was not happy.

He had a mean look on his face.

Then he attacked.

He told me again that I am scatterbrained.

How could I not remember to close the windows and turn on the air?

Maybe the busy day,

lots of phone calls and customers.

He says,

"What"

"Did you realize there was an issue when you started sweating?"

(Well, actually that was EXACTLY when I realized there was an issue,

but he had walked in the door by that time)

Then the

SCATTERBRAINED

word

came

up

again.

 

You see,

you just do a few "dumb" things

in life and it sticks with you forever.

Let's see...

Fill a vehicle up with diesel fuel by mistake.

Run over the bathtub and call the fire company thinking all your pipes have broke.

Just a couple of the classics.

You get labeled forever.

I just get a lot on my mind.

Lately,

The Window Nazi

has been doing some dumb things.

He is getting too much on his plate.

Extra responsibilities,

Oh, it shows!

His normally pristine truck looks like a hoarder owns it.

He has started forgetting things.

And then tonight.

After the

SCATTERBRAINED

comment.

I come home from work at 7:00 PM

Approxiamately.

He cooked at 4:00 PM.

And I found this.....

He never turned the burner off!

How pathetic is it that I did not even think of the danger,

just the

JUSTICE

of it all.

As my friend Tina would (and did)

say....

KARMA!

Now who is

SCATTERBRAINED!

I think our kids might already have our home picked out.
