Ann Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 What makes you a good (or bad) neighbor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet B Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Easy one - Bad Neighbor - Our house is the only one in the neighborhood badly in need of a coat of paint! Just one of those expenses we couldn't afford with 3 kids - college - etc. And being terrified of heights, I won't let my kids climb that steep ladder!

Ry Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I am a good neighbor -- I know because I live next door to the bad neighbor that no one can stand and everyone has issues with. Compared to them I am golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 I guess I might qualify as a good neighbor to some on my street and bad to others. I have never had any problems with any of my neighbors....except one. This neighbor lives four houses down the street from me. He owns a lawn business and I have a really hard time even speaking to him because of a grudge I'm holding. When Dennis was very ill, he couldn't mow the lawn and I didn't have time. I was always driving Dennis for chemo, radiation or doctor visits and holding down a job because we had to keep the health insurance in effect. I knew what several friends of mine in the area were paying for lawn care, so I approached my "neighbor" and asked him for a price. The price he gave me was outrageous, compared to other people I had spoken to. As a result, an older neighbor of mine brought over his riding lawnmower and mowed my grass. I've never been able to get past this, since this man knew how sick Dennis was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce u Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I would say a good neighbor. I only have 1 neighbor on the farm and they live 1/2 mile away. We spend alot of time together when I go down either quading, BBQ'ing, sitting around a campfire, etc. Usually enjoying a pop. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calintay Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I am a good neighbor I think! I know everyone on the cul-de-sac and we have a 4th of July block party for the last 4 years. We have only been in one fight and that was with the neighbors who no one liked. They moved no problems since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dahknee Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I think I'm a good neighbor, I mind my own business, I wave and smile and chat a little thogh I hardly know anyone. Well except my ex-wife who lives a half block away. Her and I and my current wife are good friends. All we needed was the divorce to fix the relationship.
