Very close to my neighbors for 12 years. Know them all, like them all, Scott n Nicole, Floyd, Kevin n Diana, Rosanne n Kari, Gary n Joan, Judy n Babe, Buford n Carol, Tom n Gail, Dan n Nan, Ray n Barb, and Dorothy. All of them are respectful and caring.
I learned on farm although you rely on neighbours don't get too friendly with them. I take same approach with mine. I'm here, I know you. You're alright too. But I don't let them think oh we can go to get for things you know? I keep them looking at the backside my hedges.
Although I am more than happy to be referred as "the witch next door" they probably think it damn woman burning that cauldron all day all night. Cooking up kids that trespass. They'll write songs about us. Don't go walking on their land They'll grab you and chop off your hands!
This new old guy at work Top bloke. But... One of those age bracket guys where if he tells you a story about something like let's say he's going to the pub, well you get to hear about everyone he talked to on the way. And now I know where Annette works and what she does.
I can't see my neighbors but I can sure hear them...usually shooting round after round at a silhouette that looks like Barack Obama. Whenever FOX News goes to commercial break is when the noise starts.
None of that really bothers me as long as they stay off my lawn When I first moved here the neighbors on both sides of me would cut through my lawn constantly and it was annoying. Not on the outskirts of my lawn, but more like, I would look out my window and someone's head would be bobbing past within 2 feet of my window. And their kids would climb the fence in my backyard and play with my son's toys. Like little kids that should have been under adult supervision. I kinda lowkey like fights and drama, from a distance. If I hear a neighbor getting loud and dramatic I will make a drink and go sit outside to listen
One my neighbours does weights in his shed. Makes the light fixtures in our house shake and rattle at 5am. I go play pool in my shed fucken speakers blaring away. Fuck that guy.
My neighbors are cowboys. I bet irm's jealous. That's every day life in Iowa, though. I respect them and they respect me. Hell, they could throw beer bottles all over my patio and I'd never make it an issue.
Whippersnappers!!! In my little triangle of houses, I am (we are) just one of 3 points of neighboring oddness. lol There may be anywhere from 4 or 5 to 15 people living in one of the houses...and the other house is haunted and they like it. The worse neighbors of all are those that are mean to their animals and/or mean to my cats or a dog, if I had one (or more). I should say God help those that may want to be mean to my animals, because (thus far) I have nipped any shit like that in the bud.
