Things that go bump in the.... day....?

So during the day, I watch "Taco" and my little niece, "Wowa." Taco is not yet a year and Wowa is only 3 months. Pretty tricky at times but we manage!

Today, both of the babes were up and we were all playing in the front room when I heard something metallic tip over in the house somewhere. This shouldn't have happened because we were all in the front room and I don't have any pets! I was so scared! I immediately stopped talking and stuck my head around a corner where there are doors to different vacant areas of the house.

And I sat.

And I waited.

And I made some pretty ulcers.

"....I have one phone call.... if there is someone here, they will rush me when they hear me make a phone call.... I want to call Jimmy but then if I am attacked, then that will waste precious time when the cops could be on their way....."

"....I should go check it out! But I don't really carry both babies very well and if we have to run, we'd be in trouble......"

So! I called the cops! And two lady officers walked around my house and looked for bad guys, haha. Oh, man, I felt like such a sissy!! I guess if they had sent 2 guys over who were 300 lbs each then I would have felt justified but the fact that they were ladies who were more brave than me made me feel really yellow bellied!! I mean, I was about 90% no one was there but that 10% was just making me sweat bullets! Also! If there had been an escaped convict hiding in my laundry room and I hadn't called, then I would have been dead and sorry!! haha

Hey, that dumb police tax that all of us unincorporated city residents paid has got to go towards something, right?? ;)
