I ran to Lowes to buy furnace filters on my lunch hour. Going to Lowes of a gloriously beautiful Spring Friday at lunch time = worst idea ever. Everyone had the same crappy idea so we all stood in the two open lines forever.

The upside is there is a Checkers drive thru in the parking lot. I had a double mushroom swiss burger & fries. So freaking delicious. But drippy. I am wearing some of it.

What's that old burger joint ad? If it doesn't get all over the place, it doesn't belong in your face.

I think it was Carl's Junior

LOL, we don't have them here so I've never heard it.

Why are you just getting up now?  Are you sick or just lazy today?

I'll admit that on weekends I sleep in.  Sometimes until after 11:00.  No judgment here.  I consider sleeping in a free luxury smile

On weekdays I'm jealous of my cats who get to stay on the bed all day.  On Mondays I want to toss them off the bed out of spite.

Wow, sleeping in for me is if I'm not out of bed by 7am.

I've become an early riser in my old age.wink

I don't mind getting up early in the summer.

It sucks in the winter, though.

DH woke me up because he overdid it yesterday & his back hurts. Poor guy.

Waiting on DS to get home. His grandparents opted to drop him off instead of us coming to get him. Not sure when they'll be here. Last I know, he was refusing to come in from the backyard.

Yep, if I can find the Rifleman? Triple score.

One of the characters was always talking about vindaloo curry.

So I ordered a new Bible and was flipping through it this morning only to find that there are almost 100 pages missing! Not torn out or anything, just never even put in. How strange, I emailed them and hope they send me a new one, it was really expensive.

I wanted to pose a question, seeing as this is mostly women on here, its a bit of a girl thing.

I received flowers yesterday from someone that is pretty much stalking me.
I have told them to leave me alone, that I do not want them in my life and still I get texts and e-mails and phone calls, all of which I block.
The flowers came to my place of work, this feels threatening to me and not nice at all. I'm not sure what to do or how to get this person to leave me alone.

 Can you take the flowers back as 'refused'? 

Call the non emergency line and ask for advice?

Send a Cease and Desist letter?

 Text them to not contact you again or you will go to the authorities.  This way if they do you have proof that you told them to stop. Unless you don't want it to get to that level. 

I had to do this to my brother's baby mama,  she was harassing me until I texted her something like that.  I haven't heard from her since

 The flowers were delivered here and signed for by the receptionist.

That is a good idea, maybe I will call non emergency, I just feel a bit stupid about this.

 The last time we exchanged texts, about a month ago, I said "you do realize that what you are doing is considered stalking", I got no response.  Haven't communicated since then at least I have not acknowledged any attempts from them to communicate.

I hate this feeling, its embarrassing because I am a person that handles my own issues you know?

I don't think you have anything to be embarrassed about. My mom dealt with this. She had to get a RO. One thing the judge told her after she showed him a history of texts (including ones telling the guy to stop contacting her), was to stop responding. She usually wouldn't, but every once in a while he would say something that provoked her.

 First off, don't feel embarrassed or ashamed. This is not your fault. It is on the person harassing you.

I had something very similar happen with a "friend". she even sent me flowers at work. She would call and text all the time - even after I told her not to. She would harass me on social media. She even showed up at my house once. I have a friend who's a police officer and I called him to ask for advice. Because I felt silly and like I was over reacting. He told me to immediately call and file a police report. now, since she hadn't threatened me, per se, the officer told me it would be tough going getting an RO, but I could try if I wanted to. I never did. The officers that night went and talked to her. She denied everything, but they told her to knock it off. For the most part she did. She did something else creepy a few months later, and I called and reported it too. They went and talked to her again. 

For the most part, she knocked it off. The only thing she still did was she would sign me up for magazine subscriptions. You know, the little card you fill out in the magazine. I got all kinds of crap. I would get one of those every few months. But of course has stopped since I moved.

this whole rambling post to say, you are not alone. And please call the police to seek advice and at least have record of what has been happening.
