Well I have noticed my barn gate and front gate have been latched different two times....
Then someone decided my caretakers should not be living in their new fifth wheel....Many people have to leave their homes and move into their rv's.
Someone made up a craigslist post as me, saying they had thirty some puppies, breeding horses, cows, pigs ect selling them. um I donnnnn't think so and anyone that knows me knows I am a vegan, do not believe in breeding anything, would never sell an animal ever, never did!
I had just adopted a wonderful, tiny dog who had been in the shelters for months and months. I call him PePe. That was the one I bused, maxed and walked all day to adopt in the heat!
So the humane societ saw the ad and freaked. sent the sheriff dept here to do a welfare check. Which was GREAT! I am glad they care about animals. I invited him in he saw my barn full of 3 or 4 chickens...lol my one beautiful horse, and my one beautiful farm pig pet.
My dogs were angels with him. I love my dogs...I invited him in but he said no, there are no problems here and he said he loved my place. I told him I felt blessed!
Anyway ok my point is this, Becuz of mip/al anon I felt 100% happy to have him here. I felt secure, happy and not stressed. Before I would have fell apart by someone being so horrible to harrass me. Nope i learned a long time ago about how we can choose how we feel. And for me it comes natural now.
Believe me I experienced so much sadness, horribly abusive situations, danger, fear,being around A's most my life!
I am not afraid one bit. I feel sorry for them to be led by evilness. I share my life on my facebook. This is where they get their ammunition. I will be more careful what I share now.
Even when an A somewhere is being well obnoxious, I can listen and feel compassion and not be angry , or afraid, or yell back. So freeing.
Al anon is such a great way to live in every situation. I have been thinking about how i want to go see if my AH is still where he was. I have heard some bad things about no one can find him and the old gal he parasited off of died.
Am not concerned he will be mean to me. I hope to have my son take me.
Live alone with my animals, have super great neighbors i get to share eggs with from my lovely chickens. I do not lock anything. I sleep with the screem doors shut but door is open.
My dogs would freak if anyone came in, especially my wolfie Newfie girl Bonnie JO. She is only into me. she will tolerate others attention but never asks them for it.
I got her from dodging traffic in an intersection years ago!
Anyway this is my experience with the skills I learned right here on mip, and from the books we love too!
few pictures of my oh so sad animals.....prudie little grey piggy, augie my pet farm pig, and my little Pepe! (sorta sounds like paypay) one of my hmmm island with kitchen behind

Hope the police can investigae this for you
