I was sitting in Truett’s room talking to Jonathan when I heard this really loud noise that sounded like a lawn mower outside the window. I didn’t pay much attention to it because I knew Jonathan wasn’t mowing, plus it was getting ready to rain. Who would start mowing? But the noise kept getting louder, so I checked to see what it was. Sure enough, there was Mr. Biggs in our front yard WITH A ROTOTILLER…digging a TRENCH in our front yard. I mean…in our front yard of green grass (and yes, some weeds), he dug a huge dirt ditch from the driveway to the street. I knew immediately what he was doing too, which makes it even worse. When we first moved in, he wanted permission from us for him to put in a cement water drainage system in our front yard. Um…no thank you, sir. And although our driveway does catch some rain at times, it’s not a constant problem and it goes away as soon as the rain stops. He does not agree. However, ASKING YOUR NEIGHBOR BEFORE DIGGING UP THEIR FRONT YARD would be really awesome, Mr. Biggs! Gosh, I was even starting to like you a little! Oh wait, then yesterday I found a newly planted patch of miracle grow potting soil by our front door next to our bushes where he so nicely planted some seeds of who knows what. Can anyone say trespassing? What do I have to do to take control of a neighbor who never asks before doing…well…anything. I would hate to make him upset though, because quite frankly, I will never deny that that nosey man is the best security system we’ll ever have! He meets and greets folks before they ever get out of their cars!
