We're THOSE Kinda Neighbors

{When is it okay to...}

Be a total creepy neighbor, part the blinds and take a picture of what's going on in the yard behind yours?

... When you find out that your NEW neighbors, that you don't even KNOW... and pray to the heavens don't read your blog... (because they'll think your a freak)

ARE GETTING THE PRETTIEST STAMPED STONE CEMENT PAD!

Actually... the EXACT design that YOU want!

When is it acceptable...

To go into a slight depression, for a week... after you look down at YOUR yard and see dirty diapers, falling apart stairs, cracked cement, and a "patio pad ready" spot... full of weeds???

LOL... well I don't have an answer to that...

Mostly it's NEVER okay... because if you're acting like that... you're probably not GRATEFUL for the 90% finished yard that you ALREADY HAVE!

ugh.  

What is WRONG with me people!

:)

(Even if your grass IS dying from the heat... and your hubby has to mow over .... basically hay textured grass.

hee hee hee

Give us a break... we've been watering till the cows come home... and it's greened up a LOT more, than it was 2 weeks ago.

Needless to say.......Yards... are NOT our specialty area. LOL)

Okay... so that was all a few weeks ago.

Fast forward to this morning.

I'm standing downstairs in my office, while Cason was on the computer, and you can only imagine my surprise when I see 4 men walking in my backyard.

ME:  "CASON!  There's like TEN guys in our back yard!!!!!!!!!"

(Ya... I said ten.....I'm kinda dramatic like that) lol.

CAS: "So."

ME: "What???  Go do something!"

CAS: "Um... Okay... if you don't want cement... I'll tell them to leave!"

ME: "WHAAAAAAAAAT!  Are you serious! Yes!!!!!!!!  I'm so excited!"

(((enter... hugs, kisses... more hugs and a long kiss...)))

CAS: "It's amazing what you can "afford" when the economy sucks, and everyone is in desperate need of work, huh!?"

LOL. YES... finally!  The downward spiral of the economy has worked in OUR favor!

Forget the crappy job we still have... 

WE'RE gettin' CEMENT BABY! :)

Granted, it's not the stamped kind I was envying over our fence

(that is almost 3 TIMES the price!) whew!

But at this point, I'm THRILLED with ANYTHING besides weeds!

So now... let me ask you...

When is it okay to...

Have a Bobcat wake up all your kids at 7AM...

Let your kiddo's peek out at the hard working man destroying your rickety stairs...

THEN explain to them what and WHY that hard working man needs his "special drink"

(that he can't put down) lol....

And then watch someone haul away parts of your house... while you... again,

sneak a picture, for your blog, through the blinds in your master bedroom.....

(almost getting caught and having to slam your body on the floor, so the poor workers don't think your COMPLETELY mental?????)

.........

WHEN YOU'RE GETTING CEMENT!
