I Spy....

Literally!!

So I don't think I'd make a good spy. I would get really bored. For those of you that are unaware, I have been complaining for some time about our family and the termoil that has been surrounding it in the past year...well here is a part of it. See my EX (woohoo) brother in law, now to be referred to as S (for scum, sh@*-head, stupid...whatever you want to call him), has literally been keeping my sister's belongings hostage. He seems to think she owes him money, so they had to set a court date and go to court. So the court date was had and S didn't show up.....haha....he was so busy w/ his unemployed, boring, nothing to do but concoct ways to annoy us life that he "forgot" about court and "had his days mixed up"...........too bad, so sad.....YOU LOSE!!!!!! So sister won by default, she now has to wait to get permission granted from the judge to get everything being held hostage out of the house, the house in foreclosure mind you.....so we noticed that Scott was in the house, so here I go, I SPY.....see their old house is directly across the street from me, and it has no power, so when S was there he had to open all the doors etc, so I can see a straight shot from the patio door to the front door, so I stood on my front porch for a while hiding behind my house w/ the binoculars watching, and watching, and waaaatttcccchhhiiinnnggg...are you bored yet? I saw him one time cross from the front door to the boys side of the house, but that was it, so I decided that seeing as how a lot of the houses around us are vacant I'd go see what I could see in the front of the house, to see if he was going through the garage out to his truck and I just couldn't see....so here I go....camouflage shorts and bright white shirt (hey, I said I wouldn't be a good spy) I walked down my lawn and through the neighbors yards across the street, behind one of the houses is a big huge bush/tree that takes up 1/2 the lot, so I was going around the bush and I heard something in there following me, okay if this things jumps out at me, I'm done...so much for my spying career, but it didn't (thank god)..so there I was in the trees w/ the binoculars staring at his truck....and nothing, nothing I tell you...what the heck is he doing??? So then the dogs started to bark next door, so I fled the scene. I came back home and called Jamie cause I was quite bored by myself and I wanted to give him some time to actually DO something....see S has been in our family for quite a few years and to say he moves at his own pace is putting it mildly, he is now divorced from my sister so the work pace has gone from a turtles pace only because he was getting yelled at to move faster to a snails pace...oh my. So Jamie came over and we headed back in to the bush....and still nothing, we see nothing, we didn't hear the live creature in the bush this time, but a spider web got all over Jamie's arm, if the spider followed,again we were done...so after a sand spur lodged itself in the side of my foot and I started to yell, we decided to leave. We then headed across the street from my house into the guy across the streets bush, couldn't really see much there either. Jamie drove by the house a couple times and we couldn't see anything, so we have no idea what he is doing....I suppose either he is going to take all my sister's belongings to hold them hostage further, or he is moving all his stuff out of the house...or he can actually be putting all her stuff together. Jamie seems to think he is building a catapult and when we enter the house to get her belongings once approved by the judge we will all be catapulted out???? Who knows w/ him...so I will keep you updated....I mean you never know, my sister could get a text tonight telling her all her stuff is at the curb and to come and get it, if we know him!!!!!

So that is the end of my spying career, cause I would just get too bored....I admit I love to people watch, but they have to be moving or doing something for me to watch.....

In the trees at my neighbors house, notice the camaflouge shorts


If you enlarge this photo we were watching the tan truck at the far end of the photo, between the gray truck and the house


This is what we saw through the binoculars, you will have to enlarge it, as you notice the camera lens is much bigger than the binocular viewer

This is the bush where the creature lives.
