A Knock in the Night
My airspace has been breeched, and I don't like it one little bit! One little incident can change your sense of safety and security in a heartbeat.
This morning at 5:00, one of the dogs started barking a little. She does this often, when she hears coyotes outside or something. I told her to shut up and pulled the covers over my head. A few minutes later, she barked again, and I heard something beating on the door. About that time, Bill woke up and said "what the hell are those lights on the wall?". They were headlights on our bedroom wall in the BACK of the house! Looked out the window and there is a big Buick driving around in our backyard!I came out of my Nyquil induced stupor REAL quick. Bill threw on his clothes and ran outside. He knocked on their window and said "What the HELL is going on here?". A lady was driving...said her son got into trouble at some place called the compound. "Never heard of it" Bill told her. She said "Well, then how do I get out of here"? She had driven DOWN our driveway, BETWEEN the car and the SHED, THROUGH the backyard, and all the way down to the orchard! She backed up and hit a dead tree..that's where he stopped them. He said "The same way you got in here!". Stupid lady couldn't figure it out..so he had to walk alongside the car and lead her back out. Can we say drugs?? Or maybe just an IDIOT?? Something was not right...they had to know that it wasn't a through road from the clues (A house, two cars, a grill in the yard, a swimming pool in the back yard)...DUH!!
A little too close for comfort I think. Made me not feel quite as safe out here.
Off to find a security system, sensor lights, and a sign that says "Private Drive, You Idiot!".
The nerve of some people..guess that's what I get for living in Podunkville USA...
