Apartment Life #431
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 28 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 28 years here in a weekly blog post.
*Life Update*
I have some good news and some not so good news to share. After my daughter had 2 different mammograms, the doctor said it's not cancer. Just some fibrous tissue. But they are having her come back in 6 months for another mammogram just to make sure nothing has grown.
My grandson has been diagnosed with POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) He's been almost fainting and getting really dizzy so they took him to the doctor. He also has hyperlordosis which is an inward curvature of the spine and he has to see a specialist to see what can be done for that.
The doctors office referral department still hasn't called my daughter with a referral for pain management or a new cardiologist. Good thing the infusions are working and she's not having much pain now. She even did their job and found the pain management that her insurance would take and gave them the address, phone number everything. But they still haven't called her. And they don't answer the phone when you try to call the referral department. So crazy. She sees that doctor in a week and I told her to raise hell about the referrals because that's ridiculous.

I was taking Falcor out and saw this police car sitting on the corner of the street across the street. Not sure if he had just come from somewhere over there or if he was running the plates on the car in front of him. While I was outside (5 minutes) he drove off. I take Falcor for quick 5 minute potty breaks right here when it's really hot out like it is right now.

On Thursday, the police helicopter was flying right over my apartment complex and over the other side of the sound wall so I went outside to see if any police were outside. There were none. I took a short video of the police helicopter flying around.
Later that day my neighbor came over and told us that right around the cover from us, less than a block away on the other side of the soundwall the police were all over the street, had the street blocked off and had the police tape up.
I found out the next day on the Nextdoor App...
A lady had been selling flowers on the corner and some guy tried to rob her. A good Samaritan stopped his car and got out to help her and the robber shot him. The good Samaritan got back in his car and tried to drive off but crashed his car into a tree. Police said he later died at the hospital. Here's the news story about it.

Yesterday *Saturday* I noticed police at the end of my street and there was crime scene tape going from the upstairs all the way to the bottom stairs. I don't know if I got out there after everything happened, but I didn't see any ambulance or coroner, or anything pull up.
The 3 police cars that were down there, stayed down there for quite a while though. I still have no idea what happened.
The high this week was 115F/46C
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.
