I cannot believe the nerve of some people!

[luckies4me]

You know, I think it's eventually going to come to that. I honestly don't know what else to do and frankly I've had it with all the noise/traffic/drug use etc.

[Sevaede]

OMG! That is horrible! I empathize with your situation. Folks who are extremely addicted will steal (if that's their thing) *anything*. Troy has had a lot of stuff stolen from him (valuable and otherwise). We've even had a blanket stolen from us, once!

[Kalei]

Wow, I dont' blame you for being so upset, I'm surprised no one called the cops on him yet, someone really should. Someone should call when he has a bunch of his drug buddies in the apartment.

Poor Kai, I bet he wishes that guy was gone too, I hope something positive happens for you soon, you and that extremely nice lady needs to stick together

[AdoreMyDogs]

That is just terrible It's amazing how much more Dreft is then regular laundry detergent. It's expensive stuff, and new moms generally don't have money (babies are SOOO expensive) so what a truly crummy thing to do I'm sorry that anyone would steal anything, there is no excuse to steal. Period! But baby stuff is just that much worse, being that new moms (unless they're the few lucky ones) are broke as a whole.

On a side note, Dreft powder is a bit less expensive and goes further then the liquid.

Good luck and bless that nice lady for buying you a new bottle. Those random acts of kindness are what makes this world a better place to live in.

Call the cops the next time there is a party.

Chances are they know this guy...

(Actually, it's your landlady that should be calling them, considering there are children in the building...not really safe for them....)

[I_luv_rusty]

Aww, i'm so sorry. The kid you suspect has alot of nerve, to steal the Dreft bottle. Its hard to believe someone would steal something so simple as a bottle of laundry detergent. When I went to this ranch in PA my dad couldn't find his bag of brand new socks, and he didn't lose them the maid had stole them. Its scary how nothing is safe anymore, and people are so cheap/greety they have to steal little things. That lady was really sweet for replacing the bottle.

You need to start calling the law and reporting the late night noise, especially when it wakes you and the baby up. Here where I live, the thrid time the law shows up, you get evicted! Have all the neighbors call also when they are disturbed late at night by these jerks.

I know! That was the sweetest thing a person has done for me in quite some time.

I will definitely look for the powder next time I purchase some. I didn't see any last time I went to Albertson's but knowing me I probably didn't look hard enough.

I don't understand why you are suffering through all that and the thought of calling the cops for illegal drug usage is more of a 'eventually come to it' response? I think if people would more often get themselves involved by reporting illegal activity the world would be a much better place. I mean the cops can't be everywhere and see everything all the time, they have to rely on people reporting things to catch much of it.

Don't hesitate, call the cops.

You need to call the police; AND you need to let the landlord know as well.

In most communities, landlords are now liable if they rent to peole who have illegal drug use going on.

Sorry to hear you have to put up with all that.

[moosmom]

What Freedom said!

[ramanth]

Depending on your lease and the laws where you live, you could probably withhold rent until management does something. Especially if you complain and nothing is done.

But definitely call the police.

In our building, some college kids on the 3rd floor threw this huge wild party. Cops were called and they got their eviction notice the next day.

[mina'smomma]

I sent you a pm doll. I agree with ramanth and the others. As soon as this punk keeps you up I would call the cops and have a note made of it to send to the landlord. I actually had a similar problem where I lived and the moment I notified the authorities they contacted the landlord and he evicted the guy living downstairs the next day. (this was the same one who tried to say we were throwing wild parties while hubby and I were on our honeymoon last year )

[BitsyNaceyDog]

How sweet of that woman to buy you a new bottle.
Dreft is really expensive. A cheeper alternative would be to use Tide Free, All Free, or another brand that is free of perfumes and dyes.
