Neighborhood Watch

New signs at the end of our road. One is a detour sign...only local traffic allowed.

There are others put there by our good sheriff. They are asking us to be observant and report any suspicious activity.

Seems there are some pretty slick robbers out and about. They seem to know when people are away from home. (lots of Wednesday night, Friday night, and Sunday night stealing going on) They break into people's homes seeking out home safes. Several people in our neighborhood have been hit. These crooks steal what they want and place everything back (cleaning up behind themselves) and it sometimes takes a couple of days for people to realize that the safe has been robbed.

One neighbor reported that she had just filled up with gas one night and the next morning when she got ready to leave for work her car was empty. Also, tv's, GPS, tools, laptops, jewelry, etc. have been taken.

I think I want a German Shepherd dog. We have a dog, but she's too friendly. I also know that a lot of the people in our neighborhood now have gun permits. Desperate times? or just plain mean people?

Catching UP...

Cheapest price we saw for gas yesterday.


This was on the road to Rocky Mount. We visited my husband's sister in the nursing home. She still has a long way to go, but we were very pleased with her improvments. This is about an hour's drive from our house.

I called last week to get a prescription renewed. The doctor insisted that I come in. Today I made that trip. Since I was there, he decided to go ahead and do a cancer skin screening. (All good... nothing suspicious)So by the time I got home my gas tank is now half full.

The weather has been beautiful this weekend. It was very windy today but warm. We actually saw 80's. Just a few minutes ago I heard it thunder and now we've had a quick heavy shower. It will be cooler tomorrow.

Gas is selling for $3.35.9 in our hometown. I suspect we need to be mindful of where we're going and how many other things we can get done on each trip.

Sure would have been nice if that doctor would have called in my prescription. It would have saved me gas money and a doctor's bill. I'm not complaining. I got a good report and don't have to go back until next year and he gave me three extra refills on the medicine. That last tube lasted me two years.

GOD is so good to me!!!

My eyes are burning...

And my nose is not happy... but for me... YES... ...
Spring is HERE!!...
