We kept a quilt over it. One night when leaving the church I just happened to look back to check that my van was empty (since I had parked it in a place that was empty of cars by the time I got there) and I saw the quilt on the floor behind the couch seat (I saw it by looking under the seat)and to me it looked like someone could be under it. I had already started the van at this point, so I drove around the church and saw a man from church in the parking lot. I stopped and asked him to check the back for me. He did and found an empty quilt. But he did admit to me that when he first looked in, it looked to him like someone was under it too. :0)Nenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13847303868378288229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-26373493766642087532012-02-08T14:19:26.989-08:002012-02-08T14:19:26.989-08:00I can see why a Mormon would have trouble turning ...I can see why a Mormon would have trouble turning away door-to-door salesman. lolVidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00095444826346655762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27352415.post-67306925512229225942012-02-08T07:38:33.078-08:002012-02-08T07:38:33.078-08:00What a world we live in.

I have lived alone for fourteen year...I am smiling. I have lived alone for fourteen years and in that time dealt with callers to my door both welcome and unwanted. Once on returning from a trip to Cape Cod, I unlocked my front door to chaos caused by intruders who had hacked the aluminium frame of the back door from the wall.<br /><br />In Northern Ireland during 'The Troubles', it was an offence to leave a vehicle unattended with the keys in. So many people do that while they fill up with petrol/gas, making it an easy target for thieves to take off with a full tank! We had to keep cars locked in our drive or even in our own garage.<br /><br />I only park in well lit areas at night, with nothing of value on show on the seats. I keep my bunch of keys in my hand ready to open a door without having to fumble for the right key. If I am using a handbag/purse I leave it under my feet when I drive and not on the passenger or back seats.Grannymarhttp://grannymar.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
