World!
I don't think anyplace is safe today! Just the other morning around 10, I was doing dishes. The door to our house is in front of the window. This kid comes running through the yard, right to the door and if it would have been unlocked he would have come in. He even saw me standing at the window! When it was locked he ran around the house probably to someone else's house.
I think dogs are more than just companion. They warn you if something is no right and I honestly feel they can 'sense' if someone is around who shouldn't be. that is why I am trying to find replacement for the two I lost last year. They always gave me some kind of warning when anyone around. Of course, cats were something THEY didn't like. Barked about them too. I know you have to care for them and everything like a person but the insurance to me is worth it. I do worry when I take a shower but having that guy walk up to my door like that I can expect anything. You don't have to be a young thing either. If they break in you may just be in the way or some other stupid reason. They say the jails are too full so they are out on the streets.
Just have to leave it to a higher power. He can remove the fear you have. May sound odd but the results are what I consider.
kitchenelf, I am sorry that you have this feeling. You have lot of people who care about you on this site. That should make you feel comforted somewhat. Try to give you positive advice. It can make a person so weak. Do you have good neighbors? That is first thing I would think about. Some of my neighbors are good people. The ones across the street have always gave me reason to fear. The woman is just a controlling person and she wants me to live the way she does. Life just doesn't work that way. Just don't let it stop you from living.
