Wake up!

I had a difficult time getting to sleep last night. I don't know why, I just could not fall asleep. Finally, around 2:00 am, I was just about there when I heard the doorbell ring twice followed by someone banging on the door. Hmm... It took me a few seconds to decide if I really heard it or not then decided that I had, so I got up. I woke up Pete, because I wasn't about to open the door to anyone at 2 am. We looked out the window there was a cop car parked on the street at the end of the driveway. Hmm again...

Well, this certainly brought back some unpleasant memories. So, my heart started racing. What on earth could be going on? My phone had been by my side the entire night. So, I stood at the top of the stairs as he opened the front door. Turns out, it was just a cop that was driving around in our neighborhood and noticed our garage door was up and wanted to let us know because we "probably want to put that down overnight".

Well, thaaank yooou, officer! While I am glad to know that our neighborhood is being patrolled at night, it really didn't help my already sleepless night.
