this is a response i got from my neighbor. apparently he reads my blog...hello neighbors! it makes me laugh to wonder at how many people find me funny or infuriating. anyways, i thought i would let him have his say on my blog...
"Sorry Marci, but I didn't yell at Brenton. I merely suggested that the kids play the length of the street as opposed to the width of the street. He was hitting a ball with a tennis racket towards my house. Just thought it would be better to hit the ball the length of the street as opposed towards a neighbor's house. BTW, I always say 'please' when asking them to do something. Also, I don't recall 'yelling' at your dog. The dog is only chasing a ball that somebody threw, she doesn't know any better. If I was going to say anything to anybody, I would say something to the person who threw the ball. Another thing, I ask the kids to not ride their bikes on my property, because they're not wearing helmets. I don't need a lawsuit on my hands. One last thing, who was that went to your husband Walt a few weeks back, after I found Brenton playing with matches in the yard behind me. That's the third time I caught Felipe playing with matches and I didn't want your kid being influenced by a bad kid. I'm not a bad guy Marci, just don't think you're being told the whole story. If you'd like to discuss anything in my post, you know where I live. Mr. Cranky Pants"

i guess all i have to say is that our circle has a big hill at the end of it so they have a hard time playing ball that way without running into the main street. we have been talking to brenton about matches since the beginning of summer but, he is a boy and it will probably take a few more reprimands before he gets it through his head. and you are right, you never yelled( if you haven't noticed i exaggerate on this blog, i am a drama queen) at the dog, you just don't like us letting her near your property which we have tried our hardest to do. i had no idea you had a problem about the bike thing? i will let my children know. sincerely, marci

This year, I decorated Stillestead porch for Halloween with pumpkin
lanterns.
They are pretty cute and light up adorably at night,
but I never imagined...

this is a picture of his house right across the circle from our house. the first time he yelled at us, it was about our dog running up onto his lawn/cement/home ownership domain, to fetch her ball. oh heaven forbid a dog run onto your lawn oh neighbor crankypants with the crankiness that is cranky all the time. but, i went along with his rule of no dog near his heavenly home and yard and whatnot. Roxy DO NOT GO OVER THERE, HE WILL EAT YOU ALIVE!! but now, oh but now, the man has crossed the line and i am going to tell the internet what this man has done. HE MESSED WITH MY KIDS!
here is another view of the circle in comparison to his house. now please let me ask you...HOW IS A CHILDS BALL NEVER GOING TO LAND ON HIS PRECIOUS HOLY HEAVENLY LAWN?? seriously tell me how am i to handle this because all i want to do is walk over there and let the angry bitchy marci out! because she really likes coming out...especially when she feels very justified. i just found this out late monday night from my kids so i couldn't exactly yell at him when it occured. i am starting to think that maybe the next time his teenager has a party that goes past the legal noise time limit (because i have had this happen and have let it slide) for Sandy...somebody is going to have a cop knockin on their door...
