The rapture?!


hgtv.com

Picture it: circa 2001.  Mid-week.  About 2 pm. I'm about 12 years old at this point.  I'm inside my house while my mother is outside taking clothes off of the clothesline.  It's a windy, summer day...

"I'm pretty sure she should be done taking the clothes off the line by now...hmm...I wonder what's taking so long."

It's a lazy, summer day for me and boy, am I lazy.  I didn't even offer to help my mother take the clothes off of the line.  It's too hot for all that mess.  Note:  I said it was WINDY...layyyy-zzzz

"She's been out there for over half an hour.  There ain't THAT many clothes...oh no...what if she passed out?! I'd better go check on her!!"

I open the back door and head outside.  Pushing the oval-shaped rims on my face...I peer through the lenses...and what do I see?

A lone laundry basket filled with folded clothing just sitting on the ground under the clothesline.

Not a person in sight.
