Creepy Noise in the Night

Hummmm....so it's about 3 am & I'm up. 
 "Why" would be a good question

but I'm often up in the
middle of the night to work, to worry, & yes more ...worry.

I hear a cry. 
A scream outside. 
 A container of files falls off a shelf.

"That's weird," I think to myself...but then there are no coincidences.

So I turn on the outside lights

(thanks to Fred & his Dad who added more outside light to our house this past summer)

& in the darkness I see two shadows running fast down the alley.

Only shadows.  Moving fast.  It's creepy.

I've been watching too many "Twilight"  & "New Moon" re-runs.

(don't flame me on my movie choices...the books were a great read on long airline flights!)
