Why did they issue watches and warnings for the Bahamas,that is due east of me and the keys that are south of me,But not issue any for my area?????.

I think the Bahamas issue their own watches/warnings in coodination with NHC....I am not sure if NHC issued those watches for Freeport. Hurricane Watch for Keys is appropriate considering the amount of time it takes to evacuate the entire island chain. Looks like another test for our beloved FEMA.
