2. I don't know but...
if you want a sure fire way to get them to your house...jump in the shower and no doubt they will be there as soon as you are shampooing your hair!

3. I hate, hate, HATE waiting! Esp. for some stranger to come to my home
So, I do things that only take a few minutes to complete, or can be broken up into separate tasks. Then I sit...then I pace. Then I look out the window. Then I go do another thing or task. Rinse and repeat. UGH.

7. I've found that if I start something that can't be interrupted, they show
up. Take a shower, a nap; anything that would be a pain to have broken - bang! there they are. Works every time. This also works while waiting for important phone calls.

10. Depends what it is
If they will actually be in my house doing something. I am frantically doing last minute cleaning. If they are delivering food or something, I am usually on the computer or something.
