If I never post again...
You'll know that something got me. I'm sitting back here in my scrapbook room/computer room...reading some of my favorite blogs and chatting with Christybelle on IM...when I hear "the chimes." The chimes ring every time an outside door opens to my house. All the dogs were outside except Daisy who was scratching my leg for me to pick her up. M and A are at church until 7:15 pm...and it was only 6:15 pm. My heart dropped. You know the news can make you crazy these days...even in a little town like mine. I had all kinds of crap going through my head...in a very short period of time. So I got up...and went out the back French doors. I was getting out if someone was in my house. But you know how in every scary movie, the people follow the sound or go investigate whatever it is that they really should be running from. Well, that's exactly what I did. I went back in the house through the door that was open. Now why that door was opened...I have no clue...but someone (who I did not invite in) could have been in the house. (The dogs are barking like crazy right now...I'm really freaked out again right now.) Anyway, back to my story....I'm walking slowly through the house looking for whoever or whatever it was that opened my back door. I'm thinking...what can I grab if I see something? I made it all the way through the house without seeing anything or anyone. That's when I decided...oh, I should have grabbed that Crocodile Dundee knife that M bought in the French Quarter...because "one day we might need it." Well, if someone was in the house...that's the weapon I want to have in my hand. It looks quite dangerous. I want a scary looking weapon because I'm not sure I'd be able to use it if I had to. Anyway, if anyone's in here...I haven't found them yet...but I'm still checking my back because I swear nobody would have to kill me...I'd die if someone walked up behind me. (I wish those dogs would shutup. They are driving me crazy! I'd like to know what they are barking at. Okay...maybe I don't.)
