I live in an old farmhouse, circa 1933. The kitchen has a regular window in one place so the kitchen counter couldn't go there so I had a desk built in as an extension of the countertop. It has been cool and windows open at night here. It is my job to close the kitchen window at night since it is the only window accessible without a ladder. I forgot last night.
I stagger to the coffeepot at 5:15 this morning. My hubby starts talking to me (not a good idea, I am not a morning person until the caffeine flows). He is pointing to the window - oooops, I forgot to close it. Then he is muttering something about a hole in the screen. Moving closer to the window I see a 4" square hole cut in the screen. OHMYGAWD - someone tried to get in the house! My two guard dogs, snuggled safely in the kingsize bed, had not made a sound.
Hubby says wait, I have something to show you. He goes on the backporch and brings in an empty bread wrapper, rather shredded. Yup, obviously the raccoon, who on occasion eats from my cat's bowl of food, got through the screen and drug the bread through the hole. Now I feel bad I didn't leave the ham and cheese out too.
My two guard dogs and guard cat obviously need to be replaced.
