Street smarts....hmmmm?


Sometime in March last year, before I was even offered my job here in Santa Barbara, I was relaxing at home in Ohio catching up on everyone's blogs.  When I came across a post that David Jay made on his blog with a picture of his bed.   

Now to the normal, naked eye this may look great...even impressive.  He actually makes his bed!  WOW!!!  But something is off.   So I thought to myself...maybe he was in a hurry...
but no... doesn't it just make sense that the pattern would stop where you would put the pillows, so that the pillows would fill that void?  (This guys needs more help than he knows.)

I don't know...maybe I'm abnormal but this just made sense to me.   Did I say anything to him?
Nope!  Why would I do that..I mean he has how many people reading his blog, I am sure someone would do the honors.  

............ Six months later..............

I arrived at THE Freedom House in September and was greeted by David, Bob Davis and Sarah Barlow who helped with my luggage as David started the tour of  THE guest house (my new home).   David started to show me around when I almost immediately congratulated him on making his bed correctly.  I said "Who finally told you?"  Which he replied, "What?  Told me what?"  LOL!!!

I told him the story and he lost it!   The only reason it was done correctly, this time, was because Sarah had made it.  HILARIOUS!!!   

So need-less-to-say, my first experience at THE Freedom House was confirming....that he desperately needs help... and I was going to have my work cut out for me.

Nice! I salute you! My mother would KILL me if she saw a picture of my bed online that wasn't made perfectly. My main issue is folding shirts. I can't. At all. Nada.

Also... that's pretty spiffy platform bed and headboard... where is it from? C&B?

I do have to say...congrats on attempting to make the bed in the first place! That is a major accomplishment. I think this is a hilarious story and have bookmarked your blog Crystal. I can't wait to hear more DJ stories! (I love the losing the phone right when he had bought a purse! LOL)
