What bugs you?

I know… bugs; bud-dump bum.
In reality there is good in even them, and many natural scientists would get more specific on their use in the overall scheme of things in our world.

But really, have we all become numb or complacent so much so that we are not willing to put our sanity on the line and let someone know how we truly feel about this or that?
I know nightly on the news people are still picketing for what they believe is some form of injustice, and who hasn’t been involved in showing their support in some race for the cure or Gala, or other fund raiser for a more than a worthy cause?

What I’m getting at is those day to day minutia annoyances that we sometimes overlook and consequently endure.
People are basically crazy, yep you heard that right.
A few days ago Hubby and I went out to the doctor’s office, that’s right it was Monday and we have one light when we turn onto route forty-one, onto the Tamiami Trail to go left or north to her office. And at the light, there are two lanes one in either direction, a truck was parked waiting for the light to change in the far left one, which is actually not a lane for that, since it is for the oncoming cars coming from across the intersection coming the other way! Crazy! This is not a British colony! What was HE thinking and they say women are bad drivers!

And this morning we had a visitor from the Sheriff’s Office ring our doorbell with a handout, apparently we have another sex offender that has moved into our neighborhood. But to his good he has paid his dues and is out on parole living with family just a little over a block from our home! Hubby, out of curiosity more than anything else went to the state list of these offenders, and yes anyone can to see how many you have in your own neighborhood, http://offender.fdle.state.fl.us/offender and we did, well within less than a mile of us, we have only eleven, ONLY! I used to walk this neighborhood when I had that ability to do it, and if I recall I counted at least three school bus stops! And don’t forget these are ‘only’ the ones who complied and registered, I want to know how many haven’t?
And these are all child molesters, pedophiles and the like, scary!
It’s true I do not fit their criteria but they’re many children in this transient neighborhood who more than likely do to those sick minds.
PS Hubby checked and one lives on the other side of the circle that we live on!
Should I be calmer since they paid their dues and are out on parole and I don’t meet their idea of what they frighteningly may crave, no I say!
I am not a happy camper, since none of this type of criminal has been proven to ever been able to be rehabilitated, even when sterilized!
Sincerely I don’t know how these people of this criminal background should be dealt with but some of the sentencing I think may be way too short a period to have us at large feel our children are really safe!
And sadly I have no suggestions of what to do, oh sure I do, but I might shock people.
You see, in my mind what child molesters and pedophiles do is a crime that should be punished no differently than murder and rape is in the courts at the very least!
And these people, who are especially repeat offenders as is the one we received the print out on, should be incarcerated for life without any hope of parole!
But that’s just me. This is an outrage I suppose more than the minutia I mentioned but how many have thrown those circulars away or didn’t really read them or did not realize how close that street is in comparison to where they are now living since as I said this is a very transient neighborhood and they just might not know! Oddly enough this person that was on the flier his family has lived here since 1993, five years longer than us in this particular neighborhood, how about that?
Does that give him an advantage? I sure hope not!

On that more than something to think about… Let me be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count those blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
