If you guessed our ladder, you are correct. The Fed Ex Man admitted that he delivered it to the wrong house at the wrong address. I got on the phone to Walmart.com to cancel the replacement. It may or may not be delivered to us. If it is delivered, we will have to contact them to get Fed Ex to come back and pick it up!!! What a mess!! But at least we have our ladder.

Hubs waited all of 5 minutes before he was testing it out.

@BelleStarr I think you said earlier that you get a lot of packages? Maybe the other address it was taken to gets a lot too and that's why it was mixed up without checking to be sure.

That's good that it has turned up. It is often really inconvenient when things don't turn up as they should.

He read the label wrong but is it just me or do you think someone who is a delivery person should double check to make sure what the name and address is?

@BelleStarr One day I got stopped by a delivery man asking me with help finding an address. Unfortunately he had read the postcode wrong, as XX1 5YY (which is here) rather than XX15 so I had to tell him he was about 30 miles away. I felt so sorry for him, I know they only get paid per delivery.

These delivery services need to go back to having everyone sign for their deliveries as it should also cut down on packages being stolen from porches

I've no clue why you said all of that so I'll go see if I can find out why and if not, I'll come back and ask later. Okay, I'm caught up now. So this is the original ladder that was found at the wrong address. That was quick it sounds like. Who is checking out those gutters, certainly not your husband, I hope? If he is, I hope you stay with him to make sure he's fine on the roof or ladder or whatever he'll be standing on.

I will be the one using it I think but of course, he was right up there today cleaning the gutter over the garage, He loves the ladder, it is very sturdy, Neither of us will be on the roof, John our lawn man cleans from the roof, we don't have to do that. It was quick because I was a squeaky wheel.

@MarshaMusselman We do a lot of balance centric exercise but I agree ladders and old folks not such a great combo. We will spot each other.

@BelleStarr Good. I won't get on a ladder anymore unless someone is at least with me. When I'm going up higher, I'll have someone stand on the bottom rung, but so far I've been okay. I've knows a few guys mostly that fell when they should have been fine, so I take precautions just cuz I'd like to live longer without getting any breaks at this late stage in my life.

Glad it got there. Were the other people disappoointed when their random free ladder got taken away again? Or perhaps they were not at home and knew nothing about it?
