I stayed home today...
it's been a good day for it.
However I've had a bit of a problem with security.
Somebody has been trying to get through my side security door...
I've locked it when I leave the house,
but it'll be unlocked when I arrive home.
So, in amongst the things today,
I'm getting the locks changed over
with the help of my neighbours...
not a comforting thought, eh?
Otherwise, I found the vase at the back of the complex, a reject, but still looking pretty.
My plant that looks dead, well, isn't...
The weathered pencils are looking good! So is the weathered mega-peg... which has a marbled look to it!
The large terrarium is one month old today...
And the Large Leaf Jade is sitting pretty with so many flowers on top!
Writer, poet, artist and prolific reader.... that's me.
I'm a collector of books, vinyls, coin purses and strange handbags... that's me too.
Otherwise, I love...
Well goo d luck with the prowler. Get yourself a wildlife camera for out side. They work great. clear shots and then you can turn it over to the police. They record on movement
@digitalrn Thanks! I'll look into those... however, we did get a locksmith out who told me more about my locks - or how bad they were.
He took one look at the handles and gave a very withering look: 'Aaah, well, here's your 'prowler' right here!' he said... yep, no prowler indeed. The locks weren't taking well into the door and so weren't locking properly. What a great man! He replaced both the front and side screen door locks for me within an hour and told me that they were 'had it!' (ie: stuffed!). The were the ones that were here when I moved in 12 3/4 years ago... he chuckled saying they should have been replaced 5 years ago - or as soon as I moved in. But they weren't.
Around $230 later... I have new door handles and the man is gone... :)
