Door Bells ring, are you listening?

I needed to go to Aldi's and had gone back to get dressed. No sooner did I start than the door bell rang, so I quickly pulled my nightgown back on and went to the door. Before you get too excited it's a long, plaid, flannel one. It was was the mailman with a package for me, from my sister, Victoria. It was my Christmas box so, of course, I sat down to open it right away. Wow!! What a treasure box!! Okay...time to go finish getting dressed. Ring, Ring!! The doorbell again....Keith says he saw a couple women walk up and I thought maybe it was a couple of my friends, so threw the nightgown back on and went to the door. When I opened it two strangers stood there smiling vacuous smiles and I said, "yes?" and the one said, "Hi, I'm sister _____________" (dang bible thumpers!!!). I responded, "that's nice and shut the door." Back to finish dressing... ring, ring!! Yep! The doorbell again!!! This time it was Mr. UPS with Keith's present from Victoria. I had to laugh and told him maybe I'm not supposed to get dressed and go out today. I finally did manage to complete the task of dressing and made it to Aldi's and back. But still I feel I really was supposed to remain in my nightgown all day and not do anything except sleep!
