Good Deed

Well, I did my Good Deed for the day.   Package arrived at my front door.  And I saw my address on it.  So I opened it.  Stuff I couldn't imagine ordering...

Checked address.  It was mine alright.  But wrong name.  I looked up the name and found one just far down my street.  One digit off, LOL.  But I found a phone number that matched the name.  I called many times yesterday, but it was always busy.  

So I decided to just deliver it.  I just walked out of the house this morning to rid of the package and walked down the street.  Damn, I should have driven.  It was further away than I realized.  

But I got there eventually.  Rang the doorbell.  Waited while a husky barked at me.  No response.  Banged on the door.  Waited.  Banged on the door again.  Eventually a woman came to the door and said yes her name was right.  Walked home.  My half mile start for the day.  LOL!

I'm a regular damned Boy Scout.
