somewhere, out there

that's where i want to live...somewhere, out there. this morning cory heard a beeping sound that he couldn't place and began investigating where it was coming from. it turns out it was from the new invisible fencing system we bought. (it's not actually The Invisible Fence, but the same technology...we--meaning cory--just have to install it ourselves) so cory has the wire laid out, the flags up and all that stuff. he hasn't finished burying the wire, because that is a time-consuming task that just can't be done overnight. anyway, the beeping was coming from the fencing system. it turns out that our neighbors ran over the wire with the lawn mower and cut it in two. cory says he can piece it back together, but i am very annoyed. as i said, the wire was not yet buried....however, it was IN OUR YARD, there are the white flags all over the place, & no one said anything. i think i would feel a little better if they had come & told us or left a note or something. i mean, i understand that accidents happen. as it is, i am grumpy about it. i'm sure i'll get over it in just a minute, but i am frustrated & want to move to the middle of nowhere to avoid having neighbors!

the best wqy to solve neighborly disagreements...is through retaliation! remember expressing your feelings by relasing a dog into their yard is one of the best time tested methods of neighborly revenge! seriously though that is pretty annoying! at least cory can fix it and its not a major deal!

Would your pregnancy have anything to do with being grumpy? Not that I have ever seen a grumpy pregnant lady named Lisa.

What annoys me is that your neighbors are the reason you had to get the invisible fence in the first place! Maybe you should see if they want to wear collars when they're mowing and when they get to close to the property line, you could shock them...maybe they'd be a little more careful after that! :0
