Neighbor problem (long)
"Carmen Troyer" wrote in message ... 4 yrs ago, new neighbors moved in adjacent to my property. The neighbor talked about building a deck. He didn't have a clue how to go about it. Being in the trades years ago, I volunteered to "help" him. Needless to say, he was my helper. Tis ok, that's what I loved about our neighborhood, everyone always offer to help someone else. BTW, this was no charge for all my effort. He said once the deck was built, he would have a cookout inviting all the neighbors. While we were "at it", we took out his patio slider, replaced it with French doors. I still have my brake & some coils of aluminum, so all the exterior trim work was done at my expense. Well, he threw a party all right. Inviting all his relatives and not one neighbor, not even myself or my family. Ok, I need to get over it and move on. But, he & his family are absolute pigs. The patio doors are still leaning against his garage, 2 years later. He has trash such as carpet laying out by the deck, which has been there for at least a year. One neighbor moved away because this guy refuses to mow his yard until the city makes him. He has a commercial sit down new "Scag". He parks his trailer for the mower in his front yard. The city has made him move his trailer numerous times. There's no talking to this guy, he's has an excuse for everything. I told him I seen mice in the carpet, he said he doesn't have time to dispose of it. His place is an eye sore, simply because he's lazy. I'm embarrassed to have company over, cause from my deck, it looks like I live next door to a dump. This guy has no less than 4 old snowblowers sitting around in his back yard. Aside from calling the city, and bothering them every week. Anyone have any suggestions? Yeah, I could move. He's already chased one family out of the neighborhood, really don't want to give him the satisfaction of chasing out another. Be thankful you don't live next door to some of these pigs on Usenet, especially some of the ones whom responded to you. It appears you probably live in a well to do area. Some of these pigs think that is nothing of a mess because they are used to the trailer park life. Count your blessings! |

Be thankful you don't live next door to some of these pigs on Usenet, especially some of the ones whom Grammar police are really bewildered why people say "WHOM" when it should be "WHO"....responded to you. If you say it aloud, it sounds totally weird. So why use it in writing? Supposed to be more "elegant"??? GB It appears you probably live in a well to do area.
