A note on your front door is never good news
Thursday afternoon, when we got back from the flower mart, there was a note on my front door from my neighbor. Never a good sign.
My neighbors were moving. Friday. The note was to tell me that a huge moving truck was expected between 8am and 10am Friday morning and would be there for 2-4 hours blocking any entrance or exit to or from my house (I live in one of those “modern” courts which are more like glorified driveways with 6 houses branching off of it). Hmm.. that made driving the van full of flowers in and out impossible. Well at least we knew ahead of time. We would just park on the street and bring them in.
Thursday night, when driving into our neighborhood, we noticed that the street was lined with cars for as far as the eye could see. It was a veritable parking lot. What the?! Well, it turns out that the apartment complex that is right by my community was having some repaving done. So all of the cars that would normally park in the apartment complex, were now parked on our street. Hmmm…. that made parking the flower van on the street nearby a trickier endeavor.
Not the end of the world, mind you. Just a few things to overcome in order to get the wedding flowers done. It just reinforced the question… why didn’t I hire a florist again?
