One thinks theyre prepared until this happens...

Yesterday around 7pm I was doing something in the kitchen when all of a sudden I hear someone pounding on our door that separates our kitchen from the garage(so somebody was in our garage) . I was about 7ft from the door and instinctively reached for my gun....I didn't have it on me . Then, before I spotted my gun the person banging on the door had already made it inside the house! It was..............................my mom . She decided to stop by and didn't know I had a new puppy so she got afraid he was gonna bite her when he went to lick her feet . This opened my eyes a bit and showed that I need to be more prepared, the next time it could actually be a BG. Also, that door is usually unlocked in the evening when I'm awake and the garage was open because I let the dog out until dark. I obviously need to make a few changes.

"the next time it could actually be a BG."
Or worse, the MIL.

Sooooo, how did she get into the garage in the first place without your knowledge?

Hey c-dub! The garage was open. I left it open to let the dog out. My driveway leads to my garage so its closer to walk there than around the house to the front door.

Until she moves in and the journey of tough love starts.

After 6 months,... To: MIL, when she's leaving for a short break at her place, "Mom, we'll really really miss you!" Who will do those grandma lovely dishes. Who will do the dishes?

I hope that closing and locking your doors 24/7 is the first change.

If you did have your gun, would you have shot?

That is a very popular combination when laying out a property. :-)
