Good idea, Taxy. Sure sounds like someone up to no good under the cover of darkness.

Yeah, I can easily imagine it was some drunken young men, daring each other.Maybe Trick-or-Treaters got a late start this year, Taxy? All of your plans sound like a great way to deter any further funny stuff by whoever showed up at your door. Probably some drunk, or a group of them who decided to challenge one of the group to do something like that. Nothing more "interesting" than a bunch of drunks. Hope it doesn't happen again.
Something weird happened last night. I go outside to smoke. I went out a little after midnight and everything was normal. I went out again about half an hour later. It seemed darker than it should with the outside light on. I have a light attached to the outside wall of the house. I looked at it. There was a plastic planter over it like a lampshade. So, someone came into my tiny backyard and did that. I was mostly sitting on the Chesterfield on the opposite side of that wall and never heard anything. I wonder what that was about. Stirling thinks it was a drunk.
It would be highly unlikely, even if there had been any wind. My backyard, I tend to get less wind than the general amount of wind. Also, someone emptied water out of it onto my back step. It hadn't been on the step.This might be a stretch but could the wind have picked up the plastic pot and planted it on the light fixture? In my apartment complex we sometimes find things in odd places after a storm, the courtyard seems to create a wind tunnel of sorts.
So I'm in the kitchen heating up the meatless pot roast, in my extra large frayed sweatshirt and flannel pants, and DH comes home from work for lunch. "You look like Olive Oyl."
The man sure knows how to give out compliments!
