doesn't matter where you live, there will always - be a crappy neighbor.

Last night I went to bed at 9 (early for me) and was all ready to pass out. Lauren started what I can only describe as pile driving my cervix. It HURT!!! I finally fell asleep around 10:30. At 11:30 I hear loud music and talking.

I thought DH and K were up watching a movie but they weren't. I looked outside, accross our pond and our neighbors on the other side of the pond have set up a club outside on their screened in porch. I'm praying that it's just for NYE but they were doing a sound and light check last night. Granted, the've done a terrific job. It looked just like any dance club that you might happen into. Cool lights, good music etc. However, this is a pretty affluent neighborhood. Wouldn't you think that they would at a minimum, test it during the day. UGH! Luckily they shut it down by midnight.

One kind of cool thing happened though. When I was looking out our back porch and making faces at the neighbors, I noticed a small deer was just sitting on our lawn. He was so cute! Of course in my warped mind I decided that the deer is the patron animal of Lauren and it was a sign that she would be coming soon. I'm such a retard. LOL

ediep replied: about the deer....very sweet though



I would have been very peeved about the club in my neighbors yard....

That is very sweet about the deer in your yard. I hope it's a sign that Lauren will be here soon-You've waited long enough!

gr33n3y3z replied: Yeah I know about the noise we live next to 2 rental houses and its party haven here in the summer. I give them till midnight and I call the cops and sign the report. But in our town if the cops are called to the same address 3 times they must go to court and the rental lice. will be taken away.

Did you at least get invited to the NYE party?

Kila replied: People baffle me sometimes. It's like they loose all common sense sometimes.

BTW, I don't think you're retarded about the deer thing at all!

My2Beauties replied: So cute about the deer thing, I think stuff like that too

That sucks about your stupid neighbors, some people have no courtesy at all for others! UGH!

amynicole21 replied: Trust me, I know exactly what you are talking about We don't live in the BEST neighborhood, but it isn't the ghetto either. Every 4th of July and NYE we basically have to sit up with our fire extinguishers in hand, waiting for our neighbors to burn our house down with their illegal fireworks Actually, if it were just those 2 nights it wouldn't be that bad, but I guess they buy a week's worth at a time because it's all you hear for night after night. Ack!

Cute about the deer, though... maybe it is Lauren's patron animal

MommyToAshley replied: Aweee, that's cute about the deer.

Not so cute about the neighbor! We have a neighbor that partied every Thursday night. It wouldn't have been so bad, I suppose, if it were on the weekend.. but every Thursdays????!!!!!!

akbutterfly83 replied: I'm sorry your having neighbor trubble... i know how you feel...... we live in an apartment, and for the past 3 months all we hear is a dog barking all hours of the night..... the cuppe fightting all hours of the night, or loud music all hours of the night.... we have called the cops meny times... and the office....... but they do nothing so we gave up....... last night it was the dame thing...... I just had gotten back from L&D and ate dinner..... it was about 11 o'clock and they were fightting, yelling, slaming doors, throwing things..... and then the dog started barking on top of it..... and to drowned it out our downstairs neighbor turned up their music...... man I don't like living in an apartment, or on the middle floor..... cause then you hear everything......

But again I'm sorry you have crappy neighbors.....

But yes..... that was very cute about the deer......

Maddie&EthansMom replied: I live in an older neighborhood. Our neighbors are old....we LOVE our neighbors and they love us. They dont' bother us and we don't bother them and they look out for us, too. Like grandparents. However, there are some apartments close by and UGH!! Sounds like what you described. It is all night long every single night. Boom, Boom, Boom and screeching tires. My kids bedrooms are in the front of the house, too. We actually don't hear it too much after midnight, but cummon. Enough is enough. This is one of the reasons I want to move to the country.

Your neighborhood sounds delightful...I'm really surprised they would allow that. I love the deer story, too. It definetly sounds like something I would think. You are not a retard.

paradisemommy replied: awe...i love the deer story..and i agree..you're not a retard..i think up things like that too!!

sorry to hear about your neighbors..we have a few..our houses are like a couple feet apart so we can practically hear our neighbors fart..well not really but you get the picture!! it's the pitts!
