Thursday the 14th


It's 2 weeks before Halloween. My husband is out of town and I'm watching my niece and nephews. Soon the house is quiet as the kids are tucked into bed, and I've turned on my computer to dive into some overdue work. Suddenly, the power goes out. I look to the door - it sounds like someone is trying to get it in. I grab my phone, but the battery is dead. The door slowly creaks open....

True story - except that the power didn't go out, I always keep my phone charged, and the door was closed and locked the whole time.

But I'm watching the kids again next week, just days before Halloween...
Good thing I took that babysitting course as a beehive, I'm pretty sure they covered dealing with psycos, zombies, and vampires.

*P.S. I never have and never will watch the movie "Babysitter Wanted." My imagination has enough to feed off of as it is, thank you.

I'm so glad that you're willing to risk your life so that Mike and I can enjoy some time together. But, are you sure the intruder is the most dangerous thing and not the kids?

What about Werewolves?
