This morning I had the carpets cleaned by a carpet cleaner company

He came 45 minutes early at 8:15, apt was at 9:00 so of course I looked like I just rolled out of bed when he arrived.

The kids, 5 and 3, were watching cartoons and eating their breakfast and I was in the bathroom finishing getting dressed. For humor sake, this kid was maybe 24 and maybe 120 lbs at 5"8 and completely awkward. I am also 5"8 but am plus size and 39 weeks pregnant and pushing 30.

So he is in the master bedroom, where we have family pictures everywhere including a 30X40 family canvas picture. I was in the master bath, putting on makeup and getting fixing my hair.

Carpet Guy- "So are you married?"

Me- Yep

Carpet Guy- So how is married life?

Me- Pretty good

Carpet Guy- So are those your kids?

Me- *Thinking does he not see all my pictures all over my house, or right in front of his face or notice they are clones of me and my husband* Yes they are mine.

Carpet Guy- They are cute, you should have more of them

Me- Thanks, I will get right on that next week

Carpet Guy- Next week?

Me- Yes, I am due next week

Carpet Guy- Oh I didn't notice.....

Me- *silence* But thinking really?

I finish getting my makeup done, my hair in a bun, and come out and ask him where he wants me to leave his check as I have to take DS to school

Carpet Guy- Wow, you look pretty. You clean up really nice.

Me- uhhh, thanks.

Carpet Guy- So how is it having kids? Do you like it?

Me- *thinking what kind of question is that? Is this a joke? What is going on?*

Me- Umm.... I actually hate it. Its awful. I am not sure how they keep on coming but they just keep popping out. I blame him, points to the huge canvas of DH in our family picture, Okay well I will see you later I have to take the kids to school....

And then I giggle snorted in the car. Like seriously?! That was the weirdest convo ever! Of course I like kids if I am on my 3rd in 5 years buddy...*Sigh*

I thought maybe I was and the DH thought the convo was funny but was pissed I left him home alone, but he was kinda creeping me out that I just figured it was best to leave. I was going to be back in 30 minutes, so I figured he wasn't going to take anything he wasn't creepy in like a robber/bad guy type of way, he was creepy in I have a crush and asking inappropriate questions type of way lol.

Maybe he's just asking because he's thinking about marriage and kids for himself... or maybe his girlfriend is pregnant and he's trying to figure things out... Definitely awkward, though.

Yes I think you might of been right, the questions were so off the wall and odd I didn't dare ask for details about his life and open the can of worms.

Then the whole, you look pretty thing while it was nice to know I still have it in carpet guys mind it was strange since well I am sure we all feel we look like crap at 39 weeks pregnant, at least I do

Wow what a strange little bird! I wouldn't have wanted to leave him in my house alone but wouldn't have wanted to be there with him either. I probably would have asked my neighbor to come over and hang out with me until he left!
