Neighbor Saga

My neighbor lady (the phone lady) found a new neighbor. Can you believe it? A new neighbor. I mean, I was joking when I said she needed to find a new neighbor to use but she did!

I saw her at this neighbor guy's house one night with her kids spending time around his campfire. I've never seen her talk to him before. Ever. They were hanging out again, last night, around her fire in her backyard.

Not to be all judgemental but he's kind of goofy looking and she's kind of pretty. She's a redneck but she's a pretty redneck. (So, the analytical side of my little brain wonders if she's leading him on or anything). And get this. I was being the epitime of what I absolutely do not like about living in town - a nosy neighbor. I can't stand nosy neighbors. To give myself credit, my windows were wide open and the guy was practically shouting and our houses are right next to each other.

The point to all this is he was going on and on about things in the bible. He was all loud about it like he was some southern baptist minister giving a sermon he had memorized for weeks. He kept talking about Adam and Eve and then the flood and all sorts of other things. I was getting such a kick out of it. I couldn't make out much of what he was saying - I would've had to step outside and they would've seen me (but I was tempted). Mark was getting a bang out of me for being so nosy because I just kept chuckling at them. But it was entertaining. It reminded me of someone else. I could tell by his voice, the guy was really puffed-up on what he was saying.

The neighbor lady & her kids spent the whole day, Saturday, un-junking their yard. Their little tiny yard has been full of garbage (literally) and other misc. junk since we moved in - including three cars that don't run.

With any luck she'll be gone when we get back from vacation.
