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 26 years here in a weekly blog post.
Thursday night around 10PM my neighborhood filled with smoke from a fire. I looked on Pulse Point the next morning and saw two different incidents of the fire dept. investigating smoke. The one outside fire was not near here so it wasn't the cause. I didn't see fire so I went back to sleep. lol
In the morning I looked on the Las Vegas FB incidents group I'm in and found the source of the fire had been found at 10:30PM. It must have been a big fire for it to bring smoke a few blocks away over to my neighborhood.
Crazy enough that was the only thing that happened all week. It's been so quiet around here.
The high this week was 62F/16C
The low this week was 44F/6C
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
I am so glad it has been quiet around you. Long may that last.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so.
DeleteThough I guess the smoke must have brought some concern at first, at least you were able to rule out a fire in your vicinity...and go back to sleep LOL. Thank goodness for apps! And for the calm around there. It almost feels like Christmas 😂.
ReplyDeletelol I did go back to sleep. It was quiet around here.
DeleteOh dear. Fires are the worst. At least, it didn't grow it something more serious.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to the next installment I'm the life hell series. 👍 Hehe 😁
I'm glad it wasn't worse too. I'm glad you like these posts.
DeleteI hope it continues to be peaceful for you.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too.
DeleteIt stinks like smoke here as well today because it is very foggy so all the smoke from chimneys goes down... we still have a lot of people heating on wood and coal in our cities, so there is always that one neighbour or two or three or ten than stink up the whole block.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of fire places around here too. I smell it every night.
DeletePeople behaving during a holiday week is a nice surprise. Wow, you had a chilly week! Yesterday, I was able to take a walk because it was 55 degrees. I still wore a coat and hat 🤣
ReplyDeleteI wear a sweater all the time when it gets that cold.
DeleteGlad to know the fires weren't anywhere near you. And glad to hear the neighbourhood was so quiet - that makes a change!
ReplyDeleteIt's been very quiet. I might lose blog fodder for these posts. lol
DeleteGlad no excitement this week
ReplyDeleteI'm glad too.
DeleteThankfully you & your family are safe. Fires are so dangerous.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad too.
DeleteGlad to hear that the fire wasn't a big issue. I wonder if the crazies mellowed out or left town for the week between the holidays?
ReplyDeleteI've seen very few of them around here. Maybe they left town for the week. lol
DeletePeace is nice, I hope it continues.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so too.
DeleteI'm glad the fire wasn't closer and I'm glad you've been on a roll with some quiet times.
ReplyDeleteI hope it continues.
DeleteWe had a nearby fire earlier this fall that I couldn't see, but could smell. Can be scary, but I'm glad you had no other bad incidents.
ReplyDeleteYes, fire can be really scary.
DeleteSmoke is scary. I'm glad it didn't turn into something bigger.
ReplyDeleteI am too.
DeleteGlad it was only smoke and not a major fire ~
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year ~ ^_^

Me too.
DeleteGlad to hear it was an easy week for you! I hope you had a Merry Christmas and will have a wonderful New Year.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteIt can be deceiving where smoke comes from at times. Glad it was all ok.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and,
May your heart be light, your days be bright, and your year be just right.
Thank you.
DeleteYea for another quiet week. I hope you had a good Christmas and a quiet NYE tonight!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping it's going to be quiet tonight.
DeleteThat must've been a big fire indeed. I do remember a fire here a few years back that was quite far away, but we got a bunch of smoke here. Good to hear it was quiet besides that.
ReplyDeleteFires are scary.
DeleteGlad it wasn't in your complex! And let's hope the calmness continues into the new year around your neighborhood!
