Especially after comming home from watching a scarry movie (war of the worlds). I just got home to find my kitchen door open. My kitchen door is one of two doors in my house that exits to my porch. I live in an old peer and beam house that changes it's shape everytime it rains. Apparently it is now my kitchen door that won't latch with out lifting up on the handle. I thought I locked it on the way out. I guess I didn't. I have cats that have access to the porch through a pet door on the other door that leads out to the porch. I guess they nudged on the kitchen door just enough to crack it open. Let's just say I was alone being as though my wife was on the way to her parent's house to pick up our 11 month old daughter. I've done CQB training in the military but it is different when there are four heavily armed and highly trained men in your team. I knew the probability of there being anyone in the house was next to nill but, that didn't stop my anxiety. The thing that really set me off was my cats. They were acting really skittish when I came in. I'm glad that I had at least my G26 with me. It's not an CAR-15 (yes I said Car-15) with a 3+1 round 870 attached underneath the barrel but, it was better than nothing and reassuring to have it with me.
