ahh yes, keeping up with the Jones'...we have a neighbor like that.
She wants to know how much we spend on EVERYTHING, then proceeds to tell us how stupid we are to have purchased it (whether or not we tell her the price - which oh, by the way, she could have gotten for us MUCH cheaper), then within 3 months - she has the same thing.
Now I just make up an amount - either way over or way under what we actually have spent. I recently told her we got a brand spanking new LCD 32" tv from a garage sale for $5.

Here is my rant:
We pulled off the road into a WM parking lot one afternoon to wait for a heavy thunderstorm to pass. We sat in front watching rain and lightning, listening to music, enjoying ourselves. A second MH entered the lot and pulled in across from us, nose to nose, and kept their headlights on, shining into our eyes for the next hour. I know it is a small thing, but what were they thinking?
The lot was nearly empty.
Are people just unconcious?

When I was in Germany our family and another family that we knew went on a camping trip. His Wife could do nothing but whine and complain the whole trip.
Finally I had had enough. She said, I have a headache. I said lady, you are a headache! We still remained friends after that but no more camping trips.
God Bless!

It's not the lady? who should be thrown in the river, it's her parents who have spoiled her rotten and apparently have given in to her demands. It's highly unlikely this is the first time they have done so.
But she should be the second splash.

I feel better now.
Now you see I read this and I think. "Man am I lucky to be married to the woman I am and not this shrew." Go hug your wife and thank your lucky stars.

Ok IM back with another rant
Weekend of the 4th we go camping. Roads in campground are flooded, violent T-storms the first 1-2 hours were there. I dont even care cause Im camping.
Our neighbore was a seasonal (not that theres anything wrong with that). We are setting up our site and she goes to the front of her TT. Opens the little stone shield over the window and starts to bobmp the front of TT with some kind of hornet spray poison. Creates a huge fog as she dumps thr whole can on a nest the size of a small pumpkin. She says the "nest wasn't there yesterday". Meanwhile my kids are running for cover screaming and choking as hornets and poison fill the clean air that was my site. It's all I can do to get the dog out of the death cloud. She then gets a broom and nocks nest off of her site and it lands on my site. Now there are now trees separating the sites side to side. Just grass.
The next day my kids and I are playing ladder golf on our site. we were throwing parallel to her TT but about 8 feet away. The balls on our set are rubber. we never came close to hitting her site let alone her TT. every 5 minutes she would come around the front of the TT and stare at us for a few minutes until I would politely say "hi, is there something I can help you with". (perhaps you would like to poison my family somemore.) The she would go back in side and stand in the window and stare at us.
Would I have been wrong if I beaned her off the temple with a ladder golf ball???

Only if you first swapped out the rubber ball for a steel ball. Otherwise it would of been good.

I think I could find better "friends". Some folks would complain if they were hung with a NEW rope!
