My crazy fucking
bitch neighbor showed up yesterday. Fortunately, I wasn't here and
Marc had to deal with her. She came and knocked on the back door to
tell us 'as a courtesy' that she was going to have a fence put up
between us. Good, Marc says. Well, I'm not good, she says, and get
your vegetation off my property and out of my airspace (I'm
paraphrasing here). And I don't want you mowing my property (?) as we
don't mow her property though the last time Marc mowed he did a strip
that was over the property line to blow our grass off her property
and onto ours and Marc told her so, 'which is more than you do', he
says. I don't do that (blow her cut grass onto our property with the
mower), she says, which makes her a liar as well as a crazy fucking
bitch because we watched her do it the last time she cut the grass
over there. She went on about her bricks, she's tired of our
shit, she should sue us to make us pay for half the fence (good luck
with that), and everything everybody has said about us is true (?).
Marc called her a lunatic and told her to leave.
I asked him if
she was going to get a survey and she said no that she was going to
go by my impermanent wrought iron fence sections that I put up in the
back years ago to show her husband about where the property line was
because he would spray Roundup back there and he had encroached on
our side by about a foot. Well, she better get a survey because when
I see the fence people show up that's the first thing I'm going to
ask for.
I'll be putting
the number for the sheriff on speed dial.
I was warned
about her but unfortunately the warning came too late. We should have
just gone to the funeral for her husband with whom we got along great and then gone back to the
status quo, which was no contact with her, instead of trying to be
friendly and supportive of her in her grief.
Oh well. How does that go...no good deed goes unpunished.
She does sound pretty far around the bend.
ReplyDeleteTo bad you can't have her committed. Are you ready for small claims court? It's a fun place where all the crazy people like her spend their time.
ReplyDeleteI just wonder what the heck is her damage - she doesn't even live there does she? Sheesh.
ReplyDeletenope, doesn't live there. she's just a woman seriously unhappy with her life. her husband had a procedure that he was expected to survive with no problems except he didn't. he died. she has to put that pain and anger somewhere and directing it at me is her way of doing it I guess.
DeleteOh man. She's crazyyy.
ReplyDeleteseems like no matter how much property you have, there will be neighbor. We all have them, just don't want to be them!
ReplyDeleteShe's making my neighbor with the screaming grandkids, loose aggressive dogs and semiautomatic weapons sound like a walk in the park.
ReplyDeletehopefully once she gets her fence up she will leave me alone but I doubt it. she'll have to find someone new to direct her pain and anger at.
DeleteOh shit, hope this will not grow into somethings even madder and badder.
ReplyDeleteI hope that once she gets the fence up that will be the end of it but somehow I doubt it.
DeleteI'm so very sorry. Ours is just a drunk.
ReplyDeletein the past year she has accused me of stealing things off her property, called the sheriff on me, painted 'no trespassing and no stealing' in 2 foot high letters on the side of her container that faces my yard, and now this. and she doesn't even live there. she lives in town. she just has storage building on the back of the lot.
DeleteShe doesn't sound like a person you can reason with. A fence (on the property line) could be a blessing.
ReplyDeleteI see the little worry stones didn't work. Just bad luck, I guess. Bad luck that she's an unreasonable person.
ReplyDeleteI have never had bad neighbors but have had some annoying ones. I have been able to ignore but your neighbor seems unhinged. I hope her fence is tall so you won’t have to see her again.
ReplyDeleteGood fences make good neighbors! Didn't someone famous say that? Robert Frost?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, you're right to insist on a survey. I'd be a little concerned about where that fence is going to go.
