Happy July! Let the heatwaves begin!
In my last post, I mentioned having new neighbors upstairs, next door and a few doors down.
Well, suddenly we have an issue. An issue we didn’t have with our old neighbors..
THE NEXT DOOR NEIGHBORS –
First up. I keep my blinds open all day because I choose not to live like a vampire. The day the new neighbors moved in was no different. I’m sitting there crocheting and watching my British shows and out of the corner of my eye, I see this empty cardboard box go flying thru the air from the new neighbor’s direction.
In my mind I’m thinking, I know they’re not just gonna’ let that shit go flyin’ around and not pick it up. – They didn’t.
A kid I’d never seen before went running after it and started kicking it around.
Cool. Whatever. Moving is boring for kids. I get it.
Then I look up and this same kid is walking back and forth in my part of the backyard looking in my windows! What the hell?? Can I just tell you? It’s a little more than annoying to have some weirdo kid staring at you all day. I so wish I had been naked. That lit’l peeping Tom would’ve needed eye bleach for a year!
Fortunately, when I got up to go outside he scattered and I haven’t seen – key word being seen – him since. Clearly, he’s doing his thievery at night or when we’re not home. And honestly, it’s not so much that he’s taking shit off of my patio as much as it is that he’s coming onto my patio.
Where I come from that’s a good way to get shot.
I would mention this to his parents but they don’t speak English. They’re refugees from I don’t know where but they’re very colorfully wrapped from head to toe.
Did I mention that they don’t speak English?
To date, their klepto kid has a total of 4 lighters and one ink pen left there on purpose to see if he’d take that too. He did.
Can’t wait to see what he does with them and when.
On the plus side, they don’t have a dog.
That would be the other neighbors that moved in..
In other news – I’d just like to be like everyone else and whine about the heat.
It’s flippin’ hot!
Again, this weekend. Let’s be kind to our animals and veterans alike.
I hope all of you have a safe and happy 4th of July weekend.
Happy July and stay cool my friends!

And here we are going to some very cold winter days. I hope the neighbor kid stops stealing. That’s not good.
Wish you have a wonderful 4th of July.

Thank you so much. Unfortunately we do not have a neighborhood watch. We don’t have a lot of crime here and this boy is more of an annoyance than anything. I haven’t seen him out and about but I’m certain he speaks English and when I do see him he’ll get an earful! 🙂

His parents don’t speak English but I’m pretty sure he does so when I see him again I’ll be sure and let him know. In the meantime, we just bring everything in. Blah.

When they get back from the welfare department leave a package of dog poo for him. Did I say that out loud? I think I did.
Have a fabulous day. ☺

Hahahahahaha. Ya’ know they are gone a lot. For most of the day, in fact, home in the evenings. I think I’ll sit out on the patio with no lights on and scare the shit out of him!

My little sister had a neighbor that sunbathed in the nude and that was in a neighborhood with lots of neighbors around. After a while I don’t think anyone cared. It just became the norm. 🙂

Wow, Karen, I cannot believe that new neighbor’s kid just coming on your patio, stealing your stuff, and looking in your windows staring at you. WTF?! Super annoying, borderline creepy. It makes it really difficult that you can’t even talk to his parents because they don’t speak English.
Wishing you a Happy 4th of July! Oh, I just love the quote about Frank, he was the coolest!
