A day interrupted by bears |
I looked out the window and what did I see? A mother bear with cubs was looking at me. Now I know they say bears are 'in them there hills', but to actually see them gave me the chills. She decided to lay down and take a nap. The cubs ran around so she gave them a slap. I was fixed to the window, afraid she'd try, to open the door, or at least come and spy. My cute little puppy was still sound asleep. I worried he'd wake and need out for a leak. Should I call the police and have them come here, or would they just tell me there's nothing to fear? I decided to wait, how long could she stay? The cubs snuck away cause they wanted to play. Oh dear! Now they've noticed our nice swimming pool. I grimaced as all three jumped in to get cool. I'm glad they're enjoying their afternoon fun, but I hope they go home before the day's done. I need to make supper, but now I can't move. There's just not a way I can get them removed. I decided to call my husband on cell. I'm afraid his advice just didn't go well. He told me to creep out and bang pots and pans. Really! What else could I expect from that man. Guess I'll just stay put here until he comes home, then meet him at the door with those pots of chrome. Oh, and then I will send him out for fast food, for his attitude put me in a bad mood. Great! They're out of the pool, where will they go next? Straight to the garbage can, now I am vexed! I guess hubby will have some cleaning to do, by the time he gets home and the bear's mess is through. You know what? I'll go take a hot bubble bath. When he comes, I'll sit at the window and laugh. Of course, now the bears are lumbering away, After ruining my perfectly fine day. 36 Lines Prompt: Looking out the window you see something you just can't believe. |
