Apartment Life #226

 
This is a new weekly blog post that I'm calling Apartment Hell  Life. I've mentioned a few times some of the crazy things that go on in and around my apartment complex in the past 21 years that we'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 21 years here in a weekly blog post.

On Tuesday the ambulance showed up for someone across the street but they left without taking anyone. 

On Wednesday night around midnight Ken and I heard gunshots but it wasn't real close so I didn't bother to call the police since it sounded like it was a couple of streets over and I wasn't sure where. But less than 10 minutes later we heard police sirens in the same area so someone called the police. A couple of weeks ago she walked by my door and screamed, "You have a scary f*cking window" and just kept screaming it as she walked through the courtyard. lol 

This homeless woman goes to the drug apartment all the time and routinely walks through my courtyard screaming incoherent things. And she screams really loud. Saturday morning I saw a bunch of clothes, signs and miscellaneous stuff on the ground by the old shop door. Later on my daughter saw the woman going through her stuff there.

She brings her stuff here and leaves it and comes back to either take some stuff or bring more stuff. If it's still there Monday morning when the maintenance man and porter come through they will throw it all in the trash so I hope she puts it somewhere else if she wants to keep it. 

So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell  Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.

  1. Uh. Every week I wonder how you manage to live there and stay sane.

    The window incident was funny! The poor woman must have mental issues though, on top of being homeless.

    1. My window was decorated for Halloween. I guess she didn't like it.

  2. I have been scared of a lot of things - but not a window.
    That poor woman.
    You sound to have a relatively quiet week this week - long may it continue.

  3. It's becoming harder and harder to live in an apartment complex anywhere. People are more aggressive, more sick physically and mentally. Authorities are corrupted and inefficient.

  9. What an odd collection of bits and pieces. Goodness knows what she's doing with them. And what's all the screaming about, I wonder? A scary window? She must be seriously disturbed.

    1. There is a grim reaper in my window. I don't know why she screams. Mentally ill maybe.

  21. I really feel bad for for homeless people. So often they have mental illness or drug addiction issues. Stay safe!

  22. Gunshots are not good. Hope this week is a quiet one for you!!

  23. I guess a "scary window" is one way to keep the riff raff away, lol! Joking aside, she sounds like she has some issues.

  24. I was surprised to learn from your story that someone cursed loudly because they didn't like your window decoration .... oh, I have never encountered such things in the city I live in.
    Hopefully you and your family are always doing well in that environment.

  25. That must have been some window display you had. :-) I hope the homeless woman's stuff isn't thrown out and she gets to it in time. She has so little already.
