Neighbors

So When we first moved into our home it was so exciting. I knew some of my neighbors and I thought that would make things a lot easier. Well I am starting to think differently. We have this neighbor that I knew through high school. She was not a student nor was she a close friend. She was actually my teacher. So Low and behold, who would have thought we would have an interesting time living here. It all started when we first moved in. She came over and she said you do not have as much stuff to move in as the previous owners. Okay so that was fine right, she is just making conversation. Then she always sees us when we are outside so is she spying or is it by coincidence? Not only that but my husband was outside one day trimming our tree out front and she came outside and asked if he wanted a ladder. Okay, that is nice of her to do so. She came out to me one day and said she noticed that I was home all week and my husband has not been home. She asked why that was. Well someone has to rake in the cash right? Today is the day that I think it might be a little weird. I look out side and you will not guess what I notice. I notice someone walking away from our house, more or less our garage. I was wondering who that was, and you will never guess, it was our neighbor. I don't want to know why she was over here but it was just a little strange. So when do you think a neighbor gets to be too neighborly?

Truth, Dare or Repeat?

How many people does it take to understand what I am saying? So lets go to this instance where I had to call people to confirm reservations. So I called this person up and this younger gentlemen answered the phone. I said this is Donita calling from Sparta Super 8 and I am here to confirm your reservation for this day at this rate in this room. He said where? Who? I stated again, This is Donita calling from Sparta Super 8 to confirm your reservations. He said Sparta? I said yes Sparta Super 8. He said oh, hold on I'll get so and so. So another gentlemen got on the phone, I am assuming it was his dad, and he said who is this? So I ended up repeating myself three more times for this guy and he said oh wait one minute while I get my wife. So she came on the phone and who would have guessed it, I had to repeat myself only once for her. But then twenty minutes later I finally got the answer I needed which should have only taken 5 minutes. That night was an interesting evening. You can only imagine the rest of my night, I still had about 5 hours left to work that evening.

talking, who needs it?

So I have been thinking. Is it better to share what is on your mind or just keep it to yourself and look like the good guy? People always say I want to know what is on your mind but do they really? Do they really care what you think or do they just want to look like a good guy and act like they care? Conversations lately just seem to be over rated to me. Sad to say but I feel as though i have too many opinions that people don't really care to hear. Either I'm too mean or I'm just too opinionated. Oh well things happen to every person on this earth. I just need to get over it and call it good.
