Hi Hops,
They just moved in last summer (the end). I doubt they will be moving anytime soon. Nor will I. This is (home to me) really home. It's a great community
with many good friends. People here don't just have BBQ's in their yards, we take the yard into the middle of the street, and we all do it.
In the summer a block can look like your at fair grounds. It is so comfortable here. It's home. We even made a walk way through the woods in the back of my house (with a bridge) lights that goes directly into my friends yard. So I guess we made our own (street) with plants and natural plants, stone critter statues and it's just so, comfy, which is the way I walk around the corner and the kids. It would be to hard for me to leave (now). For Super Bowl the TV is coming out into the street and they are going to make it like a Tail Gate Party... I can't even think about moving. I love it here. It's roots..ya know...even for the kids.
I laughed when you said Debland (lol). It still will be. I just get more use out of the back this year. I have been working on that side also.
Part of my fence 7ft on that side will be cut down to 4ft with a gate so my other good neighbor can get in, if needed.
Oh and ...I found in a (what to do to your yard) with a fence like I have ..If I put a long mirror against the fence it will open up the whole yard (an illusion) it will pick up all my plants on the other side (like it's an opening to another garden)...and let me see behind me (lol).
There is not much I can do about the neighbor but be aware! Hopefully he just sits and babbles his delusions And does not act on them.
Oh and my window's that face him...They now have Old Quilted Blankets (like the old days) that look really (homey) which I never thought of before and
became a bit uncomfortable that the blinds were not enough (although they are). Just me being freaked out. The other side of my house...is open.
I don't think there is much more that I can do about anything but be alert. And yes he pisses me off too, Hops. That is what I'm afraid of.
I will ignore him (his delusions) as long as he does not try to bring them into (reality). Then I will act. I don't like how he made the young girls feel last year (including my D).
But for now.....I'm alright.
Love
Deb
