Welcome!

I'm often amazed and confused by the bizarre happenings behind the closed and competitive doors of the typical suburban home. The following is a place to share my thoughts and reflections on daily life as I try to navigate this crazy and wonderful world.

Have you Ever Felt Like Someone is Watching You?

Woke up this morning and got the kids off to school. Enjoyed a quick cup of coffee and then into the shower. Got out of the shower and had the shock of a lifetime.
Do you see that? Look closely.

Still don't see it? How about I peek around the blinds for you?



There was a dude trimming trees right outside my bathroom window and my bathroom is on the second floor! Now, credit where credit is due I always say. My neighbour was doing a very nice thing as her monster tree was growing into my backyard and a recent wind storm had done some damage to our shared fence...but...I don't need Tree Dude to catch me during my naked time!

I'm thinking my blinds were made for privacy at a distance, not close up.

Moral of the story. If you feel like someone is watching you? Trust your gut, they probably are.

FUNNY! Even with intuition, who would think a man would be right out a second story window??

PS... Thank god you didn't flash him - he could have killed himself with that tool!

My neighbours opposite our house are building an extension and there are lots of builders working on the site every day and they quite like peeping through my windows! Unfortunately none of them is as good-looking as the handsome builder from the Pepsi advert. Do you remember it? Ciao. A.

GAH! Let's hope he was engrossed in his work.

Jennifer said...

Colleen said...

Mary K Brennan said...

Hysterical. I wonder if he thought someone was watching him before he saw the woman wrapped in a bath towel snapping pictures from her second floor window?

Kris said...

That is creepy having that guy under your window.
The teenager's bedroom window looks right down into our bathroom window. ALWAYS have to keep that baby shut.

Swoozie said...

Gosh! You'd think the second floor would be SAFE! Yikes!

I've got a super great award waiting for you at my blog! Come pick it up!

I thought this was going to be a ghost story and I was looking for the hidden ghost in the window shade. LOL.

This morning my 2 year old kept pointing out into the hallway from the bathroom saying "It. It." There was nothing there! Great, just great!

Lady Christie said...

That's creepy, hopefully he was to busy working to notice.

Hi all. You know I did wonder which the tree dude would think is worse? Very pale chick screeching as she stepped out of the shower OR chic wrapped in a towel with flushed face stalking him with her camera? Seriously has blogging taken over my life so much that I am now hiding behind blinds taking pictures of a guy outside my window with nothing on but a yellow towel. Yes, because I know it's essential for my "story"!
