    My daughter and I went to go pick up 2 white columns that I found on craigslist.

    We got lost b/c the directions the seller sent were incorrect. Luckily she sent her phone number as well b/c I was able to call and get the right ones. We pull up to the house and......

    SHE WALKS OUT OF THE HOUSE WITH A LEOPARD PRINT BIKINI ON!! This lady looked every bit of 60 years old. Not saying that a 60 year old can't look good in a bikini (although I have never seen one pull it off).....but ummm.....let's just say it wasn't a pretty sight. I actually spun around in a circle to make sure there were no cameras. Who DOES that when a stranger is coming to your home to purchase something? UN-BEE-lievable!!

    My 13 year old daughter looked at me...and got back in the truck...LOL.

    On a side note...she was a VERY nice woman and even shared pictures of her daughter's wedding with me...which was beautiful. She DIY-ed almost everything. Her husband even made the columns himself. But still....that outfit was NOT cool.

    Your daughter's reaction is too funny! I probably would have done the same thing. Glad she was nice and you got great columns, even if it was an unusual experience! :)

    LOL!! I am laughing again thinking about the whole thing. Their next door neighbor came out and I was watching his face to see his reaction. He talked to her as if nothing was out of place so I am assuming she walks around like that often.

    She had some other items for sale but I wasn't TRYING to stick around while she showed them to me...she had already shown me QUITE enough...thank you very much.

    LOL! That's awesome!!! I have a neighbour who's in her 50's that likes to rock a bikini to do yardwork. If she sees FI or one of his friends in our yard, she'll look them in the eye and do a straight leg bend (butt facing them) to pick up something she "dropped". It's pretty hilarious.

    Omg, I had a moment today when I thought of you JamaicaBride!!! I went into a local gift shop that was having a sale, and came in just behind a rather older lady (probably late 70's). She sort of stopped halfway in, blocking the aisle with me behind her and I guess she really liked the music because she started doing a pretty enthusiastic booty shake. I ended up going around another way giggling to myself. I wandered around the store and on my way out I passed by her again. Just as I was walking by she totally let a HUGE series of farts rip, I pretty much had to run out of the store to keep from bursting out laughing! Ahhhh to be old and not feel stuck within conventions...

    @JamaicaBride: It was outrageous!!!! I sort of looked around like "Did anyone else see that chain of events or was it just me?! Where are the cameras?!"
