Apartment Life #330

 
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.  

This is the security for my apartment complex that I told you about a few weeks ago. Signs were put up with their phone number if we wanted to call them. They are not here all the time or even at regular times. You never know when you might see them. But the thing is, they never seem to get out of their car. They pull up on the street, sit there for 15 minutes and leave and then I don't see them again for a few days. lol Good going guys. Way to make us feel protected. 

I told you guys a while back that the painters never replaced the address numbers on the buildings after they painted my complex. So twice over the last 2 months I've sent them emails telling management that ambulances were having a hard time finding the right building and addresses and that could be a health hazard. They never responded but the building numbers are on the buildings again. At least the buildings closest to the street...

You can see the two buildings in this picture I took when the buildings in my courtyard were being painted. There are no building numbers for the back buildings now. 

There are two buildings in each courtyard and each one has a different building number. Well they didn't put up the building numbers for the back buildings closest to the alley, just the ones closest to the street. They messed up again. Good going guys, job well done, yet again. *Good grief*

On Friday I saw a bunch of police on my street. 

Whew boy, there was a lot of police on the street. I heard one guy say that someone got stabbed.

So I stood outside to see if I could hear anything else. Apparently 2 homeless people got into a fight and one stabbed the other in the arm.

I did see a guy be put in this police car. I never saw an ambulance but they could have come before I saw anything happening because the police weren't out here for very long. 

When I went out with the dog later after all the police had left, I found some blood on the sidewalk.

It wasn't an enormous amount but enough that you could tell someone got hurt.

Hopefully the guy is alright.

The high this week was 113F/45C
The low this week was 88F/31C

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