omg. i've been on the phone all day. i hang up with tim, sarah calls. i hang up with sarah, shelley calls. and as i'm on teh phone with shelley, i sit down at the computer for ONE MINUTE. i get up, go towards the living room to get carli and put her down for a nap, and the front door is wide open. carli's not in the house. i said 'i gotta go' and hang up the phone, drop it on the floor. run out in the yard, look left, look right. she's not in the yard. i nearly get to the sidewalk and a neighbor, who i've never even seen before let alone met, walks around the fence and says 'i have her, i was walking down the sidewalk and i saw her, nothing happened don't worry.'

carli can't open the front door. at least, she couldn't. she's never been able to. it's a lot heavier than the inside doors and it sticks, plus the doorknob is a bit higher, so she just hasn't been able to. it's just not something that i saw happening, so i didn't plan for it. good thing we have a chain lock high on the door that i can barely reach. imagine if that girl hadn't been walking down the sidewalk. imagine if she had gone the other way towards the main road. we're only one house away from hwy 18!
i thought i was going to have a heart attack. i cried and cried and cried when i came in the house.

scariest fucking moment of my life.
