A Scary Situation

Last night I was straight up scared!  Like shaking all over, call the police scared.

Someone came to our door a little after 10 and said his car had broke down and needed to use my phone.  Frodo was running around and barking like mad (yay) so I shut the door and grabbed my cell.  I still had the chain on the door and handed him my phone to use.  He said he didn't know how to use it so I took the chain off and opened it wider to dial for him.  When I did that a second guy popped up behind him and that guy had a gun.  He didn't point it at me or say anything threatening, and honestly I don't even know if it was real, but it Freaked. Me. Out.  I slammed the door shut, chained it and hit the alarm.  I was shaking like a leaf!!  Our alarm company called immediately (yay!) and the police came to check things out and make sure we were ok.  I couldn't describe the guys at all...not even what they were wearing!  And they may not have been intending to be scary...honestly they could have easily busted in the door as soon as I took the chain off, but seeing a gun, real or fake, scared the hell out of me.  Nothing even close to this has every happened here before!  I don't consider our neighborhood scary at all.  


I'm still a little shaky about it and stranded drivers are now out of luck if they come to our house...I may put up a little sign saying we don't answer the door to strangers.  I know we all learn that in Kindergarten (or before) but it's hard to just ignore someone on your porch...well, I don't know if it will be so hard to ignore now. :)


After all that I sent a quick e-mail to our neighborhood group and a friend who lives on our street giving them a heads up to be wary.


Now let's focus on something MUCH less scary.  Yesterday's eats.  :)


You already saw our breakfast.


Here's what was left of lunch....

mostly eaten Tuna & avocado

partially consumed Strawberry & Banana Cat in the Hat Hat on a Stick (chop stick to be exact).

Sweet Potato Chips

40% off a Watermelon Bowl from Meijer

Then dinner was thanks to Olive Garden. :)

I had the Soup & Salad Combo, because that's what I always have.  Really I'd be happy with just the salad!  I LOVE their salad. :)

Minestrone Soup

Salad...Lots and lots of salad. :D

If it weren't for the fact that I had to take Kai to the bathroom TWICE I would have really enjoyed my meal.  I know it's the novelty of using public restrooms and she's always taking advantage of it so I shouldn't be surprised but last night it bugged me.  I just wanted to keep eating! lol!!

After dinner we did our grocery shopping so we're all stocked up again.  Yay!!
