The girls and I went out to grab some lunch. When we were pulling in our driveway I saw a young black male walking up the road. ( we live in a small city, so people walk and ride bikes up and down our St. all day long) We he stop at the end of my drive way (but the other side of the street) to tie his shoe. No biggie, but I wanted to wait until he walked further up the street before stepping out. We have had alot of robbery's at gun and knofe point recently, targeting women. So I am always on alert! Well then the man kept looking up at like he was waiting for me to get out of the car. Then he stood up and started fiddling in his backpack but looking over at me the whole time. SO I called my DH just to let him know what was going on. He stood there about 5 min. total and I would not get out of my SUV. I put it in reverse and started inching back just to know I am in motion. He finally started up the street very slowing but turning around every few steps to look at me. I let me see me on the phone . If he had started to walk up to my car I was going to run him over. Its been a 1/2 hr. now and I am still shaking. I watched him walk 3/4 out of site before getting the girls out and running them in the house. Everything is double locked! But now I have to leave to go get the boys from school and I do not want to leave my house.

I did not call the cops because he was not on our property and he did not say anything to me. My DH said maybe he was just checking you out. I don't care what he was doing it freaked me out! If I see him walk this way again and even look at the house I will report it.

I live on a very busy road and have great watch dog neighbors. Ironic thing is I am the Crime Watch leader in our neighborhood. But have not had a meating in a while because all has been calm. I guess it is time for one!

I did go and let my Big Dogs out to patrol! And If I get scared enough I will take them with me to go and pick the boys up from school!
