Sign of the Times




This sign is in one of our neighbors yards about a block and a half down. It made the junior higher in me giggle but this is actually a serious problem in our neighborhood. Our house is pretty close to a notorious strip where hookers do most of their work. We have talked about moving a lot due to these issues and some other issues that follow this profession (drugs, needles, creepy guys hanging around). I went to my first neighborhood association meeting the other night and this was the main topic and seemed like it was always the main topic. Apparently, the "activity" has been down the past couple of years because of the PFZ (prostitute free zone) but I guess Tom Potter found it wasn't effective and did not reinstate the zone last year some time so now a lot more "activity" is back and business is booming. Maybe Sam Adams will help us? I hope so. I don't want the day to come where my son runs into the house to show me the new "balloon" he found.

Cutie

Simon update:

He is obviously extremely cute. He is walking like a pro and only wants to eat large pieces of food, like an entire apple or a large carrot and.... if you even try to break that granola bar in half so help you woman I will freak out. Needless to say, he is very entertaining right now and I love him so much.
