Hmm

I have the vague (and probably paranoid) suspicion that someone was in the house when we came home tonight. A few things were not as I left them when we went out, and I felt a bit... uneasy. You know that "not right' feeling...

I had to give Babe a quick shower before bed, and while he was screaming his objections (he hates the shower, although I got him to take it with the promise that his head wouldn't get wet), I heard some stomping about, either downstairs or next door, together with a door closing. The sense of unease also lifted.

I really can't be sure if someone was in the house. And if someone was, it was probably the local at-risk youth who's more into mischief than harm at this point. But still...

I think I will be consistently locking the doors from now on.

What a shame.

Brrr... I wouldn't like the feeling either. Even if it was only a kid, you can be sure that the information that your door isn't closed would reach unwanted ears before long. Lock your doors, I say.

Yeah. I hope not, but yes, locking the doors from now on (and getting a deadbolt for the back door) is now a priority for when I leave the house.
