Seems I'm "Screening" My Guests...

I know I shouldn't be making fun, so forgive me, but it was funny...

I've circled in red, in both pictures below, a wet spot on the screen to my sliding back door -

Care to take a guess at what made this wet spot?!?!



Here's a clue - 

Here initials are Trixie, hahaha, and the wet spot was made by her nose!

Yup, Ms. Trixie came bounding up the deck stairs all happy and giddy and proceeded to pull a "Ralou" and leaped smack dab into the closed screen door, nose first, ALAS!

I say "pulled a Ralou", because my aunt Ralou did a similar thing years and years ago at my folks house!  She was walking, NOT giddy, out from the kitchen and onto the porch and didn't notice the screen door had been closed.  I don't recall her getting hurt, except a bit of embarrassment but as you can imagine, the screen door was NEVER the same.

Again, I shouldn't have laughed, as this is just another sign of her showing her age, which is breaking my heart.  I'm fairly certain the younger Trixie would seen the screen.  Fortunately, she didn't hurt herself, just maybe a bit of her pride like Ralou.

I told her not to worry, that I wouldn't tell anyone...so, I'm clearly a liar.
