Surprises Aren’t Always Good

Yesterday I was exhausted! I was so tired and the leaf-blowing man blew leaves for HOURS. Finally it stopped so I thought I was going to get to go to bed. (Yes, I sleep during the day. I work 3rd shift!) So I am getting ready for bed. The cats are following me because they’re ready, too. They like for us to all go at the same time. (Yes, spoiled cats.)So I climb into my bed and am settling in and suddenly hear this loud noise. It sounds like someone is trying to break in or something. I’m upstairs so I figured I would look out the window down to see what was going on. I wasn’t ready for the surprise I got. As I pulled the shade back I suddenly see this man on a ladder working on my building. He is caulking the window. I screamed and yelled a couple of words that I probably shouldn’t and shut the blinds quickly! The cats were running in circles. The guy on the ladder yelled, “Sorry! I’ll be through soon.” I just ran and climbed back in bed. I was hoping he didn’t see me standing there with no pants on. Not the best surprise I ever got.
