as far as I am concerned if I am in my house, i don't talk have to talk to anybody
Me too. This gets me in trouble with my MiL, who thinks not answering the phone is very rude. What if she was bleeding to death and for some reason called me instead of 911?
It's ages since anyone knocked on my door who wasn't delivering food. But I do have a peephole, and a barking dog who will happily lunge towards anyone who stands on the porch (except our usual delivery guys, who all know his name and smell like yummy food).
Seedy-looking guy is now doing some work in the neighbor's yard
One of those guys going door to door in search of work. Laudable but still not an automatic door-opener.

hopefully , she'd leave a message.
that's my theory, anyway.
I like the way you think, beth.
I don't think I'm brave enough to tell her that, though.
I am not a slave to my phone and everyone who wishes to call my number.
In theory, when I'm home I don't ever have to answer the door or the phone.
In practice I always do. Especially the phone. I find a ringing phone almost impossible to not answer. Though I'm getting better about that.

Me, too. However, caller ID has changed all that. I can send them right to voicemail if I so desire, because now I know who it is. I'm like unto a god! Or a demi-god.
Oh, not me. Caller ID is the only reason I
do
answer the phone sometimes.
