Well, not really, since you can't see him in the photo.
But my neighbor was up to his old tricks again... I tried to get a picture of him blowing the leaves, but his kids were playing in the front yard and I didn't want to get them in the frame.
And see the wet stain in the road? Right before he started getting busy with his leaf-blower (and that just sounds so wrong, doesn't it?) he dumped out a pail of water into the road. He walked out of his garage, down his driveway, into the road and crossed over to right in front of my yard... to dump out a pail of water.
What the what?! I just don't get this guy.
Or am I overreacting? Anyone else have any wacky neighbors?
18 Nuts Have Something To Say:
oh my, I won't even get started on my annoying neighbors! I have one that has no problem allowing his black lab to run all over the place and usually the dog ends up in our front yard...I caught it peeing on my pumpkins!!!
Seriously, it would tick me off. I could write a book on our neighbors. Matter of fact, I believe, I will!
Water is to make the leaves stick to your side of the street, of course. lol
So odd. Why didn't he throw the water to the back of his house? What is the water from?? And I do see all the leaves in the road. What a tool...
As for our neighbors. On one side they are lovely. On the other. They are fine. But feel the need to use me as their confessional. I know way more about their finances and medications than any neighbor ought to!
We've got the junk house across the street...and when they first moved in, the dad would come out and play football with his 2 sons by throwing the ball across the street into our yard for them to catch...the boys would literally be standing in our yard to catch the ball!!! And I was pregnanat with number 3 and had raging hormones...and the ball hit our front window one day!!! And they continued to do it for a couple of years!! Needless to say, we don't get along...but my other neighbors are great!
You have no idea!!! Our neighbors across the street are building a retaining wall in their front yard and what I'm guess is a pool house & pool in their backyard (although it's not big enough for either let alone both) and it's been going on for over a year - such a mess....I wish I still had the picture of it...
That's why I think we're just not "neighborhood people" I want some land with no one around....wishful thinking.
Um... my neighbor was being looked for by 3 members of the SWAT team, but he moved out in the middle of the night last weekend, so I think we're good to go now.
Was it really a pail of water or was it something else? He might be THAT guy.
I'd leave him a note or two...or four...or eighteen. Or leave him some fun "surprises" in his mailbox. :)
He walked all the way over to your side of the street to dump the water? What a freak! I suggest you go right over to his side of the street and dump another one.
My neighbors are like that. They live on a corner so they have 2 streets in which to part their cars if their driveway is occuupied. But nooooooo...they have to park in front of our house. What is that about?
Have you or your hubby ever said anything to him? Sounds like a royal idiot.
Justine :o )
You certainly are not overreacting. What a weirdo!
Strange!
We're really lucky in the neighbor department. It helps that we really only two neighbors because we live across from a park. But they are both REALLY old and at least one of them is planning to move soon. I am very nervous about what we'll get. On the flip side, I'm optimistic that a young(er) couple will move in with a kid the same age and we can be besties.

Wacky neighbors? Not sure.
I know I have loud, rude, disgusting, messy, slovenly, no-good-all-bad parenting, hip hop listening at decibels that make me insane neighbors.
They suck.
My neighbors mostly keep to themselves. Sometimes the ones across the street will ask us for weird stuff (like a shop vac at 10PM??) but that's pretty mild to what we could have.
I have a neighbor around the corner who VACUUMED his sidewalk!! No joke, he was vacuuming up the dust I guess. So odd!
I live in stepfordville...MY neighbors yards are neat and their houses professionally decorated but I do not think they are real. I am sure they are robots. They don't wave, they don't borrow anything. After living here for 3 years I just found out that they had 2 sons...I only ever saw ONE.
I am still leaning toward something Stepfordish..truly!
