I’m pretty sure the rodents are messing with me. There are three concrete steps leading to our front door, and every day I have to watch out for a hickory shell on the second step. The shell is big enough that a klutzy person (not that I know any) could twist and ankle or slip of they stepped on it just right.
After I tiptoe around the shell, I always lean down to grab it and toss it into the lawn. The next time I go back outside and down the stairs, there’s another in its place. There’s always just one and it’s always on the second step. This has been going on daily for almost 2 weeks now.
I’ve started looking around for the hidden cameras. I’m sure my mug will be making an appearance on Rodents’ Funniest Videos or Punk’d (by Chipmunks) any day now.
