It sounds like all they'd have to do is notice that Dominoes hadn't
delivered for a couple of days, she didn't go out much. I mean, how
observant are people supposed to be. Last year when we got home
from vacation, we were buried in snow, I didn't know how we'd get to
the door, never mind get the car out to retrieve the cat. Turns out my
hero neighbor did our driveway with his blower. Only a day later did it
cross his mind we weren't home. I wouldn't notice if they went away
for a few days, either.

Kudos to that woman who insisted on stopping by. She told her
manager You can take me off the clock if you want to, but I have
to check. She has a big heart.
