It is 7:15pm on Wednesday. It’s a shame it’s getting darker earlier and sunny and bright later, but that’s beside the point. I turn off the sound on my phone about 11:00 but as soon as I turn it on in the morning I get texts, up to ten or more a day.
In these anonymous calls I am addressed as Steve and all kinds including obscene messages are presented to me. I block each number but they keep sending texts. I have tried to get help from my carrier with no luck. I wonder who sells the numbers to these perverts and scammers. It must be quite a lucrative business.
My other question is, who in the world answers these texts and why? My firefighter grandson says to change my number. Apparently people do it frequently. What a hassle but I may have to for my sanity’s sake.
Annoying sales calls are one thing. This is another. Btw, I just got another one. What in heck is this world coming to?
I get knocks on my door a couple of times a month late at night from someone. Of course I never answer it. My family knows to text or call before they come.
It is very discouraging to be in this time when people are crazy. I know you’ll think of course it’s nothing new, it’s gone on for years. But I think it is-at the level it is now, increasing all the time.
Disrespect, language, rudeness even from children, gestures, and I wouldn’t want to be driving now with everyone here having a gun in their car or carrying one in public.
So settle down, say your prayers and have a good night’s sleep? Is that what you do?

With all that going on I don’t I’d ever sleep again. The thing that would worry me most would be the widespread carrying of guns. Even the police don’t carry them here in the UK.

The two occurring together is very scary. Yes, I’d change my number.

There should be a law or follow up on these people/companies, whatever.

That is awful. Hubby does surveys all day long, and we had 18 messages on the answer machine.
