How about a yacht?
A free week on a yacht? No, thank you. I had applied for a house sit, on a yacht in Florida. Another sitter was selected. Yesterday I received an email, saying that the sitter couldn't do it after all and would I be interested? I would have had to end my current house sit a couple of days early, which I knew could work out since I wasn't taking care of any animals this time (the cats went along with their parents to their cabin). But, I said no. Once I got past the glorious thought of having a yacht all to myself, I thought about the fact that I don't know the first thing about boats. It would just be me, living in luxury for a week, which sounds fantastic, but what if I heard a strange noise? I wouldn't know if it was routine, or something serious. I decided not to take responsibility for something I know nothing about. Who is this new, sensible person I'm becoming?
