I talked to the pdoc about the man who bothered me on the parking lot. I again told her about being mugged there and the guy who tried to force his way in my car on the lot. I told her about the unsavory characters who have moved into the bldg.

She told me I must move. Well, duh!

I told her I'm moving and she asked where I'm going. I told her I haven't a clue. I don't. How am I supposed to know yet? I have to study my options, figure out the best places for what money I have, etc. It will probably have to be another place for the disabled, but maybe something a bit further out from town. I hope so.

Anyway, she was glad I figured out what was going on in my head and is glad I'm wanting to move. She told me to network so I can learn of places around here.

I am so tired of being afraid to walk to and from my car.....

Geez, that has to be terrible. I would hate to think that I'd have to be afraid to walk to my car. I hope you find a place soon... hopefully it won't take too long. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. Talked to Pdoc about Man Bothering Me

Thank you!!

(((((((((((((( MP ))))))))))))))

I just don't want to jump into something before I research it well.... I used to do that and I've tried so hard to learn to look before I leap...

Hugs,

Jan

Until you move, what about some mace or pepper spray? Might teach the jerk who bothers you to leave you alone after one spritz. Talked to Pdoc about Man Bothering Me

The problem is, I can't carry groceries and pepper spray. They wait until your hands are full to bother you.... except for the guy who tried to break into the car, of course...

Good idea though. I might just have to do it.

They have some that go on your keyrings. Can you carry groceries and your keys?

Hmmm....now there is a good question! I don't believe it is sold at Wal-Mart/Target type stores. I will do some research and see what I can find.

Ok...here is what I have found. Camping/survival stores will probably sell it as well as gun stores. I found several links online to places to buy pepper spray/mace key rings. Here are just a few:

http://www.mystunguns.com/12ozpeshpesp.html
http://www.laswholesale.com/view/29/30/
http://www.pentagondefense.com/5041000.html
http://www.beststungun.com/mace-pepp...-keychain.html

I don't know much about mace...as in how close you have to be etc...however, I did experience pepper spray in high school. Some idiot sprayed it in the band room during band camp one summer. He was on the other side of a 20ft. room and I still thought I was going to die. Powerful stuff.

Nothing is worse then feeling unsafe, especially at your home, a place where you should feel safe.

Love ya,
