It's garbage day and with that brings gentlemen who like to look for "treasures" in the neighborhood bins. As I was returning home from the school drop-off I noticed that someone was going through the bin in front of our house. I didn't feel comfortable passing him and pulling into our drive-way so I rolled right on by. I just wanted to give him time.
After circling the block I headed back only to find that he was still busy. Hmmm. I still wasn't comfortable passing him so I circled once again.
Why?!?
Why didn't I just pull into the driveway say, or nod, a 'hello', and go in my house? I felt so foolish, I felt ridiculous. When I came back around the 3rd time he was gone.
Next time I'll see him. Next time I'll say 'hello'. My avoidance was embarrassing.
