Well....That's Creepy

Today I am thankful for my four security cameras.

I think I found out how the visual footage is hard to see at times.

When I come home in the dark, I can see my face, my car and even my license plate in the front security cameras.

When the neighborhood cat comes to call in the wee hours of the morning, I can see him with the back yard cameras -

but, last night I couldn't see the person who stood breathing in my front yard.

All I could see were two lights.

This happened twice; once at 0036 (again) and 0536.

I suspect whoever is doing this has OCD...I mean, the times are eerily similar.

I saved the footage.

I'm an artist, so I'll take it to the various video editing programs I have to see if I can get an outline of the person's face.

At least my former life as a YouTube content creator has taught me a few life hacks!

This is Wednesday.

My ex's family always had a penchant for harassing me on Wednesdays (especially in the wee hours of the morning).

No one tried to break into the house this morning. The camera just captured video.

I have only had time to reach out to ONE of my security camera manufacturers.  I have two different systems now.

Apparently, if one shines a bright light directly into the camera, it tricks the camera into thinking it is daytime so the night vision doesn't work.

This is easily remedied by changing the camera settings to constant IR night vision.  One system is now set to day vision - the other is constantly set to night vision.

It's sad to say this but I have a third IR camera system.  I thought about donating it to charity.  I've decided to hook it up by the windows.

One can use a cell phone light to obscure his or her identity but it is rarely effective.

When I found video of my gun-toting neighbor setting his camera on my porch for a few minutes, I wondered if anyone could use a phone camera to thwart a security system.  They can - but only at night.

My Private Investigator neighbor is worried about me.

I don't know, yet, if there is cause for concern.

It would really be nice for this to be over.

Love ya,

S.

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

Venus Meditations

  Today I am thankful for my new realization.  In my world, Friday is the day of love (reminds of The Cure - lol).  It's true.  Friday is the day of Venus.  Exhausted as I was after work, I went to my altar and lit a candle asking that my friend find whatever his life is lacking. Then I went upstairs and did my Friday night ritual to Aphrodite.  I lit a candle asking that I gain confidence in my ability to love.  I also ask that I recognize true love.  I was too exhausted to linger so I tried to fall asleep.  Have you been too tired to sleep?  It's horrible.  Your mind goes round and round -  you might recall things that happened recently (like the doctor telling me to be careful because I haven't hit menopause yet and I say, "not worried about it" while thinking that it's a good time to be in a sexual drought - hooray for me),  or things going on at work  (that I can hypnotize little cranky babies to sleep without sa...

Of Cowards and Chairs

Today I am thankful for cowards and chairs.   I don't understand the whole Clint Eastwood thing.  I mean, really, if you're going to do a Gestalt therapy session without a shrink, at least be brave enough put the idiot needing the scolding in the darn chair.  There are some people who would need two chairs; one for Obama and one for Bush.  Me, I'd need a whole heck of a lot of chairs.  I'd whine.  I'd complain.  I'd go after one side for stealing money from the poor and giving it to the rich.  Then I'd yell at the other one for the same thing.  Where are they for the poor?  Where are they for the huddled masses? The tired?  The needy?  Nowhere.... I mean, we give money in the expectation that it will be there for us should we need it...right? We pay our taxes.  Why do they keep rising while our benefits from them are dropping?  I'll tell you. Politician are only in it for themselves....
