Scary day in the neighborhood

Yesterday was an interesting day. Kiara and I had just gotten back from grocery shopping, and Austin was at preschool. I was making lunch and Kiki was watching a movie, when I heard a knock at the door....and the doorbell rang at the same time. I thought that was a bit odd, but I opened the door anyway.....to see a policeman standing there. He said that there was a gun incident on our block and told me that I had to leave right away. I ran back to the kitchen and turned off the stove, grabbed Kiki, put her coat and shoes on, and left the house. My adrenaline was pumping like crazy, and as we were leaving, I saw that policeman running around the side of our house! As I drove along our street, I saw at least 10 cop cars on either side. There was also a cop car blocking half of the street going towards our house, and directing traffic down a side street. I drove to Austin's preschool and waited for 45 minutes til he was done. I was telling one the mom's that I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to go home, because they might still have the road blocked off. She offered for us to be able to come over if we needed to, and gave me her number. So we drove home, and all the ruckus was finished....or so we thought. I unlocked the door and opened it to see the whole house full of smoke! I ran into the kitchen to see that I had left my tea simmering on the burner.......the tea had boiled over, boiled dry and then the pot had proceeded to start melting!!! What a mess and what a smell! I opened all the windows....thankfully it was a beautiful day......but it still stinks like crazy!! It's gonna take a long time to get the smell out I think. What a crazy day!

Stupid test

I feel pretty special! lol I just figured out how to read questions....they trip you up with the way they word things.
