Neighbors and Gossip

Well, you all should be proud of me. I got out of the house today and talked with the neighbors. People around here are either named Debbie or Jeff it seems, so this will get confusing.
Debbie, who is Sandy's (18 year old) grandma, and the neighbor Michelle's mom, who is Sandy's step mom (confusing right?)...anyhow she came over to introduce herself and ask if I needed a ride to the grocery store. So then we started chatting and I came out and sat on the porch. She told me she wished she knew what there was to do around here, but there is nothing. Ron and Carrol (married, and Carrol just turned 51) were out, and so was the other Debbie, plus Sandy and Sandy's niece (3) and nephew (5). Found out the boy, Riley, found his daddy's playboys and had them under his bed. So I got to know my neighbors a lot better. Then Debbie (grandma) apologized for the fight I heard the other night. She was so embarrassed. But then she asked if I wanted to go for a walk, so I agreed. How about that?
So we walked Sissy, the community dog, up to the cemetary, which butts up with IUP and the old dorms. I could see the grocery store and my new favorite store Ollie's, so it's an easy enough walk (especially on days like today, nice and cool). We got up near the old dorms and someone kept whistling, and Debbie was so excited, "oh you're first whistle in Indiana!" Of course, I couldn't see who was doing it, darn it. But we also heard the marching band practicing. I enjoyed the walk a lot.
People around here like to talk. They are also very nice and helpful. Apparently they say it's going to start getting cold now, so I have to get on getting a jacket. I'm actually wearing pajama pants right now.
So I had an eventful evening. I'm trying to make dinner right now, but my chicken isn't going so well. Never been a good chicken cooker. That's all for now!
