Good Morning
Couldnt sleep so got back up, turned on my heating pad and grabbed laptop - thought I'd say Good Morning
Had a break in 5 houses down yesterday (wed) am, some guys broke into neighbors storage shed, scary thing was she was out walking her dog at 5am, alone (crazy) without a cell phone - car was going really slow and following her so she hightailed it back home was a few doors down, saw hubby at end of drive and yelled to him, he turned around - wasn't hubby but some very large black man - the car came around corner and he ran and got in as she was running into her home - grabbed hubby he ran out - she called police, of course they were gone by time cops came. All they took was their gas can , cops said with her turning back home so fast, she most likely ruined their plans - he figures they have been the ones in the neighbor hood watching to see who leaves the house early in am for work etc as the one guy was a very large blk guy that she saw that am and one of the guys going door to door also was - good possibility same guy.
This was Wed 5am - on Monday about 2pm my door bell rings -i'm sound asleep - get up run down stairs look out peep hole and see a very large black man - no one I knew so I didnt open door - dogs barking like crazy - he rings doorbell again - finally goes away.
Talked to Linda next door yesterday and they had been to her house too - woke Bryan (her 25yr old son) up - he looked out and saw 2 blk guys he did not know so went back and got his gun/holster put it on and opened door - they were wanting to knwo where he worked who else lived there and some other ridiculous questions which bryan didnt answer, so they were evidently casing houses They also had been to the house that they broke into the shed at asking questions - havent talked to other neighbors so not sure what other homes they rang doorbells at - I know neighbors on other side of me were not home nor were ones 2 door up or the ones across street, 4 are gone all day, one couple is retired and in and out and John is in and out a lot down the road I'm not sure, dont know - so now I'll be watching for strange vehicles
Anyhow lastnight/this am I couldnt get to sleep - neighbors dogs 2 doors down wer barking solid for 45 minutes around midnite then againat 3am and then mine ran out to bark had to get them in, I didnt see anyone out there so dont know what they were barking at, probably a cat or a ****, I hope anyhow - this has been a really quiet neighborhood for the 12 yrs we have been here - first sign of trouble since we have lived here, other than some kids smashing mailboxes, thats not great but I'd rather have a smashed mailbox than someone breaking in. It is dark in here - no street lights, we leave front an back porch lights on all the time and have a motion one over garage doors but it's still a dark neighborhood
Just makes me MAD that people think they can just take what they want from whoever they want - grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Thanks for letting me grumble !
I hope you have a nice day !
