Tonite something happened to Terry and I that we never ever thought would happen in a million years. And then we remembered we moved to Goshen, in a subdivision where they will finance anyone with a heartbeat and a piece of paper that resembles a paystub. We are longing for the days when we can buy land, or a house on some land, and get out of this trash hole neighborhood we so lovingly call home. The story starts at the end of dinner tonite....and here it is.
It started when more kids were traipsing through our backyard and Terry went out and asked them if HE walks in their yard. Sarcastic, but an honest question. Then he asked again, in a more stern tone when he got no response and when they answered he came back inside. Within 5 minutes it sounded like the cops were here breaking down our BACK door, which is glass. It's the neighbors, knocking to get Terry outside. They start pointing out that they have 2 feet of property on our side of the fence they just built a few weeks ago---they didn't build it on the property line...so now all these kids are using that 2 ft area as a walk through. Really? Was that your intent? Because they wind up in our yard anyway, everyday, just FYI! Anyway, Terry goes out to talk, as an adult would, and this guy starts dropping the F bomb like crazy...and then he got RIGHT in Terry's face and started pointing at him and screaming....it got so ugly so fast, I didn't know what to do. We had been eating dinner and Terry had had a beer with dinner, so the guy smells that (since he was almost IN Terry's mouth and all while yelling at him) and starts calling Terry an f'ing drunk and an f'ing dick and so on and so forth. While I'm standing there trying to get Terry to back down and go back inside, his wife is telling us how HE doesn't drink, he NEVER drinks. Um, that's not the issue...but maybe we should talk about the drugs he's doing? Would that be better? Anyway, I thought the men would back down, but then the guy's wife starts in on our KIDS...and compared to the children in this 'hood, our kids are PERFECT, and I mean that. They started bringing up stuff our kids and CATS supposedly do(yes, even they were brought into it....ones we don't even own at that!) I finally got in the middle of the men for like the 4th time and the guy was just about to throw a punch as I did, so Terry shoved me out of the way. After more male taunting and name calling, I got Terry back inside. Two hours later he was still hyped up! I have never seen my man like that before...not that I want to again, but at least I know he's got my back...and could actually handle it!
Ok, well, back to boring....we can't deal with that much excitement you know!

Oh MY. That totally sucks for you guys. Those people sound like real winners!
I hope you get out of there real. fast.
Oh and btw, they have no leg to stand on with their fence explanation. No judge would give a crap.
Yeah, we figured their reasoning was crap. They have been ok until now, but not, it's ON! Terry and I are in the process of filing a police report, just to save our butts in the future if need be.
