So our beautiful neighbor friends had to go out of town recently. We often watch each others abodes, although we already have a neighborhood watch sign (see the signs)...and no we are not in the hood, well not really.
They are a sweet young couple and very down to earth and such. Just like us, I'm thinkin'. I know this because they have the same solar lights as us.
So day 1 and 2 go by. All is great in our neighborhood. I'm the protective type so I think, let's make it look like somebody is home.
Day 3. Place eco friendly and reusable red solo cup on porch. This could be hubby working on a project and he just left there. This happens to people.
Day 4. Yep, cup stays.
Day 5. Decide that it looks a little dark in front of their house. I ask my hubby and he say's "it's fine." He's practical like that. I think it might be right to put up a solar light. Can't hurt, right? We have a spotlight and my beautiful husband obliges...does a tactical Seabee/ Seal team move and places it at their house and points it at a rock. Done! I then look down the street to see and well, I can't see a difference. So I kindly ask him if he'd move it and add an additional light. He is so sweet and is going with me on this..although I know his eyes were rolling when he walked out the door. Perfect. He put them so they have a lighted path when they get home (and hopefully a little laugh). My strategy here is that change has occured and home security tactics in place.
Day 6. At the risk of going overboard, we place a small garden flag (removable) on their lawn. It's red in color and has a big O for some college team.
Day 7. Place small garage sign and move nice big blue truck out front so people can see it.
Most of this is not true and some of it might be false. Go Buckeyes!!
