Margaret Brown

K.K.'s story is about how she was mislabeled as being a slow learner, while it was believed she had dyslexia. It wasn't until she was in middle school before she was diagnosed as having, 'photophobia,' a condition caused by the eye, itself. Photophobia is caused by the aqueous humour in the eye. The aqueous humour is a fluid at the front of the eye, which helps to maintain the shape of the eye. Light passes through this fluid on its way to the retina. The shape of the eye can determine eye fatigue, such as handling glare from a computer, dealing with lighting conditions, which can distort what one sees, as well as having difficulties with organizational issues, such as not seeing items that may be directly in full view.

Introduction

This is part four!  Be sure to read parts one, two and three before starting this book.

Peanut Butter and Jelly

Jonathan and Kim, or PB&J (Peanut Butter and Jelly), had sold all of their belongings and traveled the long distance from California to my state to start anew.

They are a young couple and seemed quite friendly when my spouse and I met them for the first-time. Later, we would find out it was all an act, since they intended on renting out three bedrooms.  Well, I’ll be damn, that reminds me of Jorge Toilet Seat and Rosie Smelly Bush, except later, we’d find out PB&J’s roomies weren’t as bad!

As a special welcome gift, I gave them a Xmas ornament having the words, Merry Christmas in Your First Home, along with a bottle of sangria.

Well, no one else in the neighborhood was going to do that.  After all, the residents in this neighborhood are not known for Southern hospitality.  Instead, they like to complain like me and do it in a sneaky way. I’ve learned that over the number of years I’ve been living here.  

One nice thing I'd like to add is that they will say, Hi! when one takes a short walk around the neighborhood.

Well, now after submitting that email and those updated complaints, I do feel a little guilty when U-Haul Man gets in his truck, and quickly turns off the loud music he’s been playing, as he drives by my house.  Obviously, he thinks the neighbor making a complaint about his truck are PB&J. 

However, it could really be anyone, like for example, a dog walker.

Update on Britni:

Today is January 4th, and I checked the ownership of Britni’s home to see if she is having to move or not.  A real estate investor has bought the house and will probably make 100K by flipping it.

For us, that might be a good thing, since someone would have to have a good credit check to purchase the house.  Actually, that’s not what happened, something more cynical, more than what this old lady could ever have imagined had happened!  More to come, much later in this book!

Intimidation!  Poor U-Haul Man!

On January 12, 2023, I was taken by surprise when I noticed a police vehicle blocking the U-Haul Man’s driveway.  There was one police officer in the car and I’m not sure how long he’d been there.  I don’t know if he got out of the vehicle and spoke with U-Haul Man.  U-Haul Man continued about his business, ignoring this intimidation, as if he were use to it.

Later, after the police officer left, U-Haul Man had taken furniture out of the house and placed it on the lawn.  There was a couch and a few other items.  It looked like he had decided to store the furniture, which isn’t his, since he had rented the house already furnished.  I believe he stored the furniture
