One of the things you should know about me is I'm a tad bit paranoid... Wait. Have you met my mom?? Haha. I come by it honestly.
When I decided to live by myself, the most important thing to my parents was for me to live in a very safe area. I live in one of the safest areas of my town in a gated subdivision.... But I still get freaked out from time to
Time.
So my dad, being the most amazing dad that he is, had a security system installed in my condo.
Plus, every single one of my doors looks like this...
Yes, that is four locks you see. Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you ;)
One of my guy friends constantly makes fun of my paranoia, I can't help it!
So lately the only action my alarm has gotten is when I accidentally set it off. Until last night...
I went to church and had left my phone on silent in my purse. When I checked my phone I had several calls/texts/voicemails from my mom and a couple calls from ADT. Evidently someone/something had set my alarm off at church. Since no one could get a hold of me, they sent the police to my house. Yea... I'm definitely the most hated neighbor on the block now...
Anyway, I was a little freaked out and dragged my friend Tom over to my house to look in every nook and cranny of my house to make sure no one was waiting to snatch me! I'm sure I'll never live this one down!
So after getting no sleep because I was so freaked out, it turns out I just didn't shut my door all the way when I left for church. Wow. I probably shouldn't let too many people know that.
So moral of the story is.... Alarms are great, when you know how to use them!
