I always read about an hour before falling asleep each night.
Last night I settled into bed, got interested in my book, which by the way, is "Divine Justice" by David Baldacci.
And, then I heard it!
Heavy breathing......
This rhythmic breathing in, soft snore out sort of thing.
I live alone.
I got up and walked into the living room. I didn't hear it there. ๐
Back to the bedroom. Same sound. So I eased around trying to pinpoint where it was coming from.
Now, this is silly. I have never been afraid in my apartment. Third floor up, not much chance of prowlers but I actually slid the shower curtain back to see if somehow someone had gotten in my apartment, crawled into my shower and fell asleep. I told you that was silly.
I tiptoed around the end of the bed. It got louder. Finally when I put my ear up to my window did I discover what/who was snoring in my bedroom.
It was a doggone tree frog sitting in that 3 story tall crepe myrtle just outside my window.
I wanted to strangle him!!!
Phew. Laughing in relief here.
ReplyDeleteI guess I've never heard a tree frog makes a sound... sounds like snoring, huh?
ReplyDeleteBet the heart was beating a bit faster.
ReplyDeleteThat little bugger as snoring?! ๐คจ
ReplyDeletewas...
ReplyDeleteha! ha! Glad the little tree frog gave you a laugh before you went to sleep.
ReplyDeleteWe live in the country and those frogs are loud at night. That's funny, I am happy it wasn't a stranger in your shower:) Enjoy your day dear friend, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteA fun mystery, solved!
ReplyDeleteI would have wanted to strangle him too!!!!!
ReplyDeleteFunny, but not funny.
Gentle hugs...
A tree frog?!? Oh my gosh, I was getting scared with you! Glad it was nothing too frightening. :)
ReplyDeleteHeavens I never knew a frog could breathe so loudly, what a fright for you.
