Ok...picture this scene...it's the middle of the night. Everything's pitch black. The dog's sound asleep....Kelly and Casey are sound asleep....dreaming wonderful, peaceful dreams when all of a sudden......CRASH...THUD...GLASS BREAKING******* loud sounds from the living room made all three of us jump 10 feet off the bed....Casey....the hero that he is runs out of the bedroom, turns the hall light on and as he's banging his fist against the wall to scare whatever made that crash he's yelling, "May I help you?? Get out of my house!!!" in a very scary tone. I....the girl that I am....am frozen standing still in the bedroom...waiting for a gunshot or screaming...something. What seems like forever in silence was only a few seconds...I go down the hall into the living room to find Casey searching the house and theN we spot it.....the picture above the mantle has fallen and a crystal bowl has been shattered all over the floor. Phew!!!! My heart can now get out of my throat and back down to where it belongs. Let me tell you.....to think someone is breaking into your house is the most frightening, helpless feeling I have ever had. Casey of course says...he was ready to go in there and I quote, "tear their eyeballs out and slam their head through the wall." My hero!

way to be the protector Casey. Even if it was just a glass bowl.
It was actually pretty freaky. That picture above the mantle was huge.. and the glass breaking and thud really sounded like somebody was breaking in. We laugh about it now, but that's the first time I've ever wished that I owned a gun .....or at least poison blowdarts or a boomerang... or a bowstaff.
Casey, I think that the question "May I help you?" is way more dangerous than a bowstaff. When I lived by myself, I used to keep a maglite beside my bed as a weapon. Come to think of it, I believe I kept it there until recently. Glad ya'll are ok. I would've been scared like crazy.
KELLY!!!!!!!! I can not believe that this happened to you! Guess what....THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO MY MOM AND DAD A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO!!! In their case, the picture fell onto a tile floor and broke into a million little pieces...Dad wanted to be the hero too....let's just say that mom will not be hanging anything there for awhile!!!!!! Love ya!! MC
Okay, that's scary. I would FREAK OUT if that happened to me. My heart is racing just from reading your story :) Yeah, I'm a baby!!
