Bubba went to a psychiatrist.
'I've got problems. Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it.
I'm scared. I think I'm going crazy.'

'Just put yourself in my hands for one year,' said the shrink.
'Come talk to me three times a week, and we should be able to get rid of those fears.'

'How much do you charge?'



'
Eighty dollars per visit, replied the doctor.'

'I'll sleep on it,' said Bubba.

Six months later the doctor met Bubba on the street.
'Why didn't you ever come to see me about those fears you were having?'
asked the psychiatrist.

'Well Eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year is an awful lot of money!
A bartender cured me for $10. I was so happy to have saved all that money
that I went and bought me a new pickup!'

'Is that so! And how, may I ask, did a bartender cure you?'

'He told me to cut the legs off the bed! - Ain't nobody under there now !!!'

LOL!!!! That was cute!
Although - I prefer a TALL bed! Makes it harder for creepy crawlies to get up on it!

But Crystal, the things that fall onto the bed from the ceiling can't get down from a high bed. So there they are.

I ordered drawers and put them under my bed...keeps all those monsters out as long as Don remembers to close the closet door and no one turns off my bedside light, I'm safe at night.
 
I never sleep in a dark room...we just need to keep those boogey-men away!  di

P.S  Don says I probably need to see that psychiatrist that Bubba didn't go back to.  di

I had a rule as a kid.  The boogeyman under the bed could only have what he could reach when a leg or whatnot hung over the edge of the bed.  As long as I kept all my body parts on the TOP of the bed- they were "off limits" to any monsters.  Seems to have worked well up to this point.

Me, too, Ring.
 
I have a walk-in closet in the master bathroom. The light stays on all night with the door partly closed. It wasn't done from fear, it was because the basement is under our bedroom and I began to see mold on leather shoes. Yuk. The warmth of the light keeps the closet drier so mold won't form. It also helps when I make my many trips to "you-know-where" each night. I could fall down and crack open my noggin, you know.
 
That's my story and I am sticking to it.
Annie

That was cute! lol!  But I won't cut the legs off.  I never thought to go look under the bed for a "man" even though he was the boogey man!  hmmmm!  Maybe I will look tonight!

I love it, Annie!
 
I too sleep with a light on all night.
 
I don't know if I mentioned it, but my father had a fall in the middle of the night las Saturday. He was going back to bed after using the lavatory, got dizzy, and went down near his bed. He couldn't get up of course. Mom said she woke up to a feeble voice calling, "Edna" - pause - "Edna" - pause - "Edna". It finally penetrated that it was Dad, so she got up and went in to see him sprawled out on the floor of his bedroom. She of course couldn't help him up, but she got his walker and he was able to pull himself up between the walker and the bed. Pretty scary! Mom said she was thinking she was going to have to call an ambulance to get him up! I'll sure be glad when they can move into Murray's!
 
Dad was going to look into something portable with hangy things with which to pull himself up. I suggested he try a medical supply place. I'll have to ask hi how he made out.
