There’s a list in the back of my head. It’s my list of things I’ll do when I become rich and famous. Things like opening a cafe’/fabric store/knitting club/book store/bar, traveling to Denali, and sleeping in past 6am.
Today I have decided to add a “Stunt Double” to that list. Can you see how useful/awesome it would be?! Dirty Diaper, STUNT DOUBLE! Trips of boring adult errands, STUNT DOUBLE! Need a nap? STUNT DOUBLE!
I do suppose that most people would call this a maid or a butler… but there’s not much fun in that. I want some one who at the drop of a hat will roll in with a dramatic entry and take my place no matter what the situation is.
They’ll scale trees for me, catching chickens, while I sit back and giggle with a glass of wine. They’ll climb that scary 30 foot ladder to see where that noise is coming from while I get a tan from the safety of my deck. They’ll fish out the goop from the sink drains as I remember how to put on nail polish.
The possibilities are endless!
But my life can be quite exhausting, maybe I should hire a few stunt doubles, I wouldn’t want to break them…

I want a stunt double that will go shopping with my Mom over the holidays!
