So, Hubs comes in last night from taking the dog downstairs for his evening constitutional. His face is flushed to the point that I’m thinking they went for a run, but since my hound is of the “weiner-dog” variety, I know this is highly unlikely.
“Honey, why is your face so red?”
“Because I’ve just had a ‘most embarrassing moment’!”
“What in the world happened?!”
“Well, I let Riley do his business and I hit a couple of golf balls while I was waiting for him. Then, we came back up the stairs.”
“Um…what’s so embarrassing about that?”
“I got distracted by the dog and lost track of how many flights of stairs we had climbed. I stopped on the second floor instead of the third and walked RIGHT ON IN to the apartment BELOW ours!”
“Oh no! Was anyone there?”
“Oh yeah. It was dark in there, except for the TV. Riley flew in and stopped short in front of an African American woman, who, taken aback by the dog, spun around to find me standing in her doorway, holding a golf club! All I could see was her silhouette against the light of the TV and the whites of her eyes as she screamed bloody murder!”
“Oh man…what did you do? What did SHE do?”
“I managed to calm her down and explain what happened and that I wasn’t going to kill her, and fortunately, she believed me. But, from now on? The dog’s all yours!”
May your weekend be filled with good times and laughter with family and friends – and REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR DOORS LOCKED!
oh my, can't even imagine.
Hmm, good thing he didn't walk in on me like that. He mighta got a bullet between his eyes!! My husband knows to never come in on me at night without letting me know he is on the property.
I'm not sure who I pity worse.. your husband or the lady!!

HYSTERICAL!! I'm a screamer too. I swear anyone who was truly out to hurt me couldn't bear all the shrieking going one.
Glad she didn't call the cops..LOL
What a hoot! I would have been scared to death in either position…the unknown. Good thing everyone has a good sense of humor and can laugh about it. We need more laughter these days!
I'm fairly sure that had I been her, I would have died immediately from heart failure. That would be a tough reckoning wouldn't it?!

What a blessing that y'all can laugh about it now! Cracked me right up!
I wonder what Riley was thinking!
I hope everyone has recovered!
Shalom,
Denise
Oh my! That is HYSTERICAL!! I have tears in my eyes!! Needed a good laugh this morning!
I reckon your hubby owes that poor lady a batch of cookies or at least a jar of posies 😉
Thanks for the laugh. At least your apartment building seems to be built well–since you didn't hear the shrieking down below.
LOL! Jeff wishes we would have seen this before seeing y'all earlier tonight! Love ya! Give Kevin a hard time from us!

LOL: This is one of those stories for the Thanksgiving table when all the family is together.
Thank you for the chuckle.
