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 26 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.
I was outside walking Falcor at 11PM one night this week and spotted an ambulance down the street going into the apartment complex at the end of the street. Those red lights are from the ambulance. I'm actually surprised my camera took a fairly clear picture at night. lol
It rained one day this week and most people have stayed in their apartments. I hardly saw anyone outside this week. It was so quiet with the exception of one neighbor who was really loud until after 1am one night. But they are moving soon so they will be gone. Good riddance. Hopefully the next people that move in across from me will be quiet and more importantly...normal. My courtyard is finally quiet for the most part with either older people or just normal people. But there are soon to be 2 vacant apartments in my courtyard and who knows what kind of craziness will move in next.
I will leave you with a few sky pictures from this week.
We had one day of rain.
It rained overnight.
And then the next day was cloudy.
The big, puffy clouds over the mountains looked so pretty.
The high this week was 68F/20C
The low this week was 46F/7C
So that's it for this week's Apartment Hell Life! Be sure to come back next week for more.
Hi, Mary!
ReplyDeleteSeems like the overall trend in recent months is toward a quieter, more peaceful neighborhood, and that's great news. If I were in your place, I'd be equally anxious about those vacancies and hoping for decent, law-abiding citizens to move in.
In my neck of the woods, there have been an extraordinary number of windy days this winter, adding to its bite. As much as I enjoyed having rosy cheeks and gazing at the snow covered landscape, I must admit that I am looking forward to spring. Hope you and my buddy Falcor have been well and in good spirits. I'm back today with a new post at Shady's Place if you have time to stop by. Have a wonderful week, dear friend Mary!
Nice and quiet is always nice. I will be over to read your post in a moment. I hope you are well.
DeleteHopefully the apartment managers do their job and screen all applicants well. With complete background checks.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so.
DeleteYou got rain! That is news!
ReplyDeleteI know! We hardly ever get rain so that was nice.
DeleteLovely photos
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI'm sending good vibes about your new neighbours...though if it gets too quiet, you'll run out of material for this post series LOL.
ReplyDeleteLOL I don't see that happening. There's too many apartment buildings around here for everyone to be calm, quiet and normal.
DeleteYay for a quiet week! And I hope someone nice and normal moves in nearby. Love those puffy white clouds. :D
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so too.
DeleteSo you had a fairly quiet and uneventful week, with rain and people keeping to themselves. Your neighbourhood is usually so busy, a quiet week must be boring!!!!! I bet you are looking for action!
ReplyDeletelmao With some of the action we've had in the past few weeks I will take the quiet over the gunshots any day.
DeleteI'm surprised you'd walk at any time at night in the neighborhood you live in
ReplyDeleteOh I walk all the time at night. I carry a taser and a knife with me though. Because when the dog has to go he has to go. LOL
DeleteI hope the new neighbour is someone civilised who doesn't cause some fresh nuisance. Glad the neighbourhood has quietened down a bit.
ReplyDeleteI sure hope so too. I know when it heats up more people are usually outside though.
DeleteHow nice to have a quieter week!
ReplyDeleteI like your sky photographs.
All the best Jan
Thank you.
DeleteIt is nice to have a quiet week and quiet neighbors. We neighbors a few houses down that like to practice shooting in their yard. It sounds like a gun range. Pretty puffy clouds and sky photos. Take care, have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Some people around here like to shoot into the air around here too.
DeleteGreat sky photos, well done!
ReplyDeleteThan you so much.
DeleteThat is a pretty good night pic! I love sky pics too. and yes- hopefully any new arrivals will be normals lol :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, yes I do hope so.
DeleteI'll keep my fingers crossed for normal neighbors for you.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHope everyone was fine. We currently have well over 20C during the days.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind those temps.
DeleteOh my, I'll bet vacancies really make you wonder who might be headed in. We will route for normal too!
ReplyDeleteYeah it does.
DeleteSo nice to have a quiet week! The rain does cut down on crime. People don't like to get wet. Those clouds look beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteMust be difficult at times wondering who the new people are coming into the apartments, noisy or quiet.
ReplyDeleteYeah you just never know anymore.
DeleteI hope you get some quiet boring neighbors who are nice. I am lucky that my neighborhood is quiet and the people are nice. Our next door neighbors dogs run loose frequently but that is it.
ReplyDeleteI hope so too but when you have so many people packed into small spaces, there's bound to be a few who don't get along. There are 16 apartments in my courtyard so the chances of there being at least one that's loud or obnoxious is pretty good.
