Let's have a "crazy" neighbor contest!!

[SterlingAcres]

So far, so good. No 'crazies' living next door to me. Though I did and do have some 'weird' neighbors.

At the old house, we lived next door to the crazy cat lady. Her and her DH are in their early 30s but don't want children, so they collect cats. Every morning while leaving for work at 6am, she would honk the horn goodbye to her cats. EVERY morning.

This new house... well, the guy across the streets gotta be 60 or 70. We've only been here 3 weeks. Our dog got loose and was roaming our woods. The neighbor came over to tell me, but tapped my door and walked right on into my living room. Now my doors are always locked.

He's probably senile.

But reading this thread was hilarious. Y'all got some nutters living next door! I laughed so hard about 'Mad Eye Moody' and the twigs in the driveway

LOL our neighbor is from Australia, he thinks EVERY snake is venomous. So he brings his shot gun outside and shoots it. I don't think there is anything left of it. My brother and his friend dropped firecrackers on his porch and ran. He is a busy body and thinks he knows everything. WEEELL I could write more but my brother is bugging me to get on so Ill tell yall later. Buh Byeeeeee.

I really try my best to live a life of atonement for past sins, and I have fought with my demon of a temper for my entire life, and lucky for him, I am too crippled up to be a brawler anymore, otherwise the day he yelled at my kid, I would have gone over the fence and shown my true Scottish rage. I am doubly blessed, I am of Scottish and Irish heritage, and I was raised Texan, so woe be unto him that finally finds that temper switch.
I love the pipes as well, and Amazing Grace still brings tears to my eyes, (too many funerals for brother cop and firefighters), and hopefully all my boys and my girl will pick them up. That would really send the neighbor over.

Jen,

I have read many of your posts and you are truly an amazing person. My comment was tongue in cheek.

I got ducks and new chicks last spring, brooded them for the usual time, then set them out to free-range with the others. But the darn ducks were much more adventurous than the ones we had years ago, and would go into their yard. The chickens followed right behind, and all 20 something of my chickens and the ducks were in her yard. She came over screaming at me that she didn't want her grass ruined. Chicken poo kills grass ya know... you didn't know that? Neither did I until she told me.

And she told me sternly that she HATES chickens.... even though she had chickens of her own!

So I apologized profusely and told her we would put up a fence as soon as possible along the entire property line... which we did. No problems after that, so fast-forward to this spring, but first, we had the worst winter in many years here in NH. The snow finally melted away from the fence line in early JUNE. And right after the snow melted, I got a call on my answering machine from her to call back or else. I don't know what the or else was gonna be, but dang, I really do want to be a good neighbor, and I don't want to find out what "or else" means so I call. From the answering machine message, my call back was within 4 hours of her call. But she doesn't answer, so I leave a message on her machine.

FIVE MINUTES after I leave the message, the COPS show up!! She called the cops on me!! And I didn't even know why! I guess there was a gap in the fence, and ONE chicken went over the property line by THREE feet!! (That's what she said later when my husband called her!) Seriously! I didn't leave anything out, that's the whole story! Weird, huh?

Jen,

I took it that way.

And thank you for your very kind comments. I do get defensive at times, but there are days I feel like a treed grizzly bear around here.LOL! If I ever catch you on line, I do promise to have a list of questions for you that will probably have you shaking your head for weeks.

Now, my neighbors don't compare with what some of you have to deal with. The house next to us was recently bought(within the year) and the man comes over to our front door, a day or two before moving in. Introduces himself and tells us he would be willing to help pay for repair on the fence seperating our yard from his. He then goes on to explain that he has 3 pittbulls and we needed to "fix" the fence, "because when you get warriors on one side of a fence, the fence better be strong".. Of course in the back of my mind, I wanted to say "Fence in your own dam* "warriors"..

The first week since moving in, we realized it was going to be bad. He has turned his backyard into a junkyard. He run a towtruck business and I guess works nightshift. He runs saws at night(1 am) in his "workshop" which is 50ft from my father's bedroom window. Then he screams and yells cussing at ALL the other dogs in the neighborhood(everyone has at least 1 big dog, usually 3-6) because they are barking at him making all the racket in his backyard. I actually watched him throw sticks over our privacy fence at our dogs because our dogs were barking at his.. It's frustrating, I mean good grief, we didn't hide the dogs when the house was shown. EVERY time he came to prospect over the house, ALL the neighborhood dogs were barking then.. Um, hello?!?

His pittbulls("warriors") got loose the other day and I couldn't help but notice that they were skinny and one had a serious case of mange. You could tell the female was or had been pregnant. Which really upsets me because she was an already ill-bred pittbull. I have NOTHING against a pittbull, but like any dog, don't breed the ones that are ill-bred to begin with.

Oh yeah, he moved his mailbox so it was literally sitting on THE property line or our front yard.

I'm going to stop now, because this is not therapeutic for me, it's only making me enraged..

I could go on and on about my crazy neighbor. The list is endless! He hates me and I ignore him but silently wish some hole would open up and suck him into it! He calls the cops for everything and anything and I in turn tell them what a crazy idiot he is and openly calls me names that not even I wouldn't repeat. In the same breath, he offers to help my husband fix his car because he "has nothing against him, just his choice in wives".

This has been going on since I turned him into the Animal Control for poisoning cats in the neighborhood with antifreeze. His kids showed my kids the bowl and when I confronted his wife, she openly told me he was doing it and why so I made the call. He was not only trying to kill pets with no regard, but he left the bowl out where his toddler played. I should have called Child Protective Services too. His wife conveniently dumped out the antifreeze as the cops were pulling into their driveway, thus making me the crazy, nosey neighbor who makes stuff up.

Six months before that his spawn of a son beat my elderly dog with a stick in my own backyard, in front of my crying kids, till the dog was on the ground. I made it out in time to save the dog and drag the kid over to his Dad. He, of course, blamed it on my dog because his son would never do something like that.

This was followed by this same spawn of a child ripping down fence boards and using them to beat the hood of my car. This was of course my fault too for not having a garage to park my car in and having loose fence boards. This same fence was deemed his solely by the surveyor while I was living in Italy. I know this because I received a letter telling me this and why all of my plants were cut off their trellis and left to die while I was gone. They were too close to his fence.

My dog barks and he calls the cops because it's annoying. His dog barks and its only protecting his property. He finds gum in his yard and he calls the cops to tell them I'm littering. Someone stole all his soda cans for recycling and of course it was me, because I don't have enough of those sticky awful things to turn in myself, lol.

He put up a 20 ft high rusted fence with ivy 2 years ago, a double thick lattice fence, hung dinosaur drapes in his garage windows and stopped opening his drapes on the side of the house that faces ours because I'm the crazy neighbor.
