Little Red Riding Hood


I feel like little red riding hood - or at least the feeling I had when I was reading that book and had the constant feeling - don't go into the woods something is going to happen!

I'm not sure where I got this sense to fear the woods, but it is pretty constant at night and that makes having them in the backyard kinda tricky. The dogs aren't really helping tonight either. It is a very dark night and I am sitting on the couch and looking out into a pitch black backyard that I know is full of woods, most likely critters and who knows what else.

The dogs are really having a blast barking as if someone is trying to break into the house every 5 minutes - and then they run into the kitchen and stand there listening for noise. If you have dogs you know the look - I can't explain it but it's not comforting - followed by at least one dog growling German Shepard style at the door. You would think these dogs were big and ferocious but really they are about 30 pounds each, white and fluffy.

Ok, I'm going to try to go to sleep now and forget about the woods - do you think that will work?
