Freaked Out from Deep Sleep

Last Friday was kind of a bad day for me and my hubby. We were both upset with each other. I went to bed early after having some gas problems with the food I ate earlier. He, on the other hand, did not come to bed until almost three o’clock in the morning. I was awaken when he crawled in bed. A few minutes later, when we were already both sleeping soundly, we heard a noise coming from the kitchen area. It sounded to me like one of the chairs there was accidentally hit by someone.

If There Had Really Been an Intruder

My hubby thought that it was me that made the noise but when he discovered I was still in bed, he decided to check it out. He got up and grabbed the hand gun just in case. It took him a few seconds before he could get it loaded. If there had really been an intruder, he would likely have been long gone once he heard the round getting chambered. We checked out the whole house including the home office, bathroom, living room and the second bedroom. We checked to see that all of the doors were still locked. They were still locked and we couldn’t find anyone else in our house.

I don’t know what made the noise. My hubby said that it was probably some of the dishes in the sink that slipped. It did not sound like a plate to me but I had no other explanation. I did not get back to sleep again that night because I was so freaked out with what had just happened.
