This is a weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that have gone on in and around my apartment complex and in my neighborhood in the past 25 years that I've lived here and people keep telling me I should write a book. But instead of a book, I've decided to share the crazy things that have happened in and around my apartment complex in the last 25 years here in a weekly blog post.
The police had Antwon and some of the other druggies that live down at the end of my block outside and were questioning them. I think they might have found drugs on one of the guys because they arrested him and I haven't seen him since.

The ambulance showed up one night at 2am for someone in the building where our pool is. The flashing lights is what woke me up. They are really bright and came right through my curtains. The next day I could see a small blood trail leading from the sidewalk to the pool courtyard but I have no idea what happened.
On Friday around 7PM I heard two gunshots that sounded really close but after looking outside to the street, I didn't see anyone outside so I chalked it up to someone firing a couple rounds in the air.
The high this week was 90F/32C
The low this week was 55F/12C
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
I guess the druggies will be back soon enough, but small victories. right? 🙂
ReplyDeleteA fairly quiet week on the whole - but I wonder how you manage to get any sleep at night...even the lights now...
It was a pretty quiet week.
DeleteOne druggie gone - at least for a while has to be a plus. I hope the person taken away in the ambulance is ok. And I am glad that you are.
ReplyDeleteYeah at least for a while.
DeleteIf there was nothing in the news about the pool incident, then no one died. Sad that's what it takes, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThat's probably true.
DeleteThat is one hell of a night. I'm kind of surprised there is a pool in that complex.
ReplyDeleteIt was only open for a few weeks this Summer. Wasn't open at all last year or the year before that.
DeleteIsn't Antwon the one who was selling out of the mobile van with a partner? Does he still have that business going?
ReplyDeleteYes he is. I haven't seen the trailer around since it disappeared the last time I talked about it.
DeleteSounds awful.
ReplyDeleteIt was a quiet week all things considered.
DeleteThe blood trail is disturbing.
ReplyDeleteIt's not the first time I've seen that.
DeleteBlood by the pool... not good. Or gunshots. I hope this weekend has been quiet.
ReplyDeleteSo far it has.
DeleteYes, it's hard to believe that was a quiet week for you.
ReplyDeleteNever a good thing to hear gunshots! I'm glad you weren't hurt Mary!
ReplyDeleteNo its not.
DeleteI'm glad there's no one firing off rounds in this neighbourhood!
ReplyDeleteMe too.
DeleteThe druggies never go far do they. Stay safe!
ReplyDeleteNo, they sure don't.
