Accompanied by my "sending shivers down my spine" still growling companion which didn't exactly settle my nerves I gingerly made my way through the kitchen to check the back door...nothing untoward there...through to our little den...the patio doors are safely locked but hold on a second...the outdoor security lights are on...crikey any minute now I was expecting to come face to face with a prowler but then I spotted the metal clothes pole lying against the patio doors...obviously it had blown across the garden and hit the glass with a bang...the "scared the living daylights out of the resident guard dog and his Mum" mystery is solved and I will admit I wasn't exactly happy about venturing out into the cold dark wind whistling night to put it somewhere safe...that hairs standing up on the back of your neck/waiting for a hand on your shoulder kind of feeling and where was my personal furry bodyguard in the meantime...having decided there was no intruder to sink his teeth into...he was back in bed and snoring his head off. Imagination is a wonderful thing but beware...it can play tricks with your mind...I'm blaming my current obsession with all things Halloween.
But today's a new day and there's nothing likely to cause nightmares about today's task...
a hot date with a pile of step-by-steps...
and a big roll of bubble wrap
Have a great weekend and I'll see you all on Monday for a brand new challenge over at Simon Says Stamp.

So SWEET!
ReplyDeleteLove the spooky peek.
ReplyDeleteI don't envy you your nighttime 'adventure' but glad it was only something caught up by the wind.
It is rather chilly of a morning & evening down here in the South, but so far we have been pretty lucky with daytime temps.
Have a super weekend.

Hi Kath. Oh, thank you for the laugh!!! Your descriptions are so good. Saw it all in my minds eye.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend. Smiles. Jan. x
It takes a lot to frighten me but you could take up fiction writing and write a novel!! My heart was in my throat.... so glad it was nothing much to worry about! Having been burgled twice, it is not a good feeling, so glad all was OK for you. Well done to Buddy for his courage too! Hugs, Anne xx
