Among Friends

It's a bit before 7 am on a Sunday..my inconsiderate neighbor gets out his very loud leaf blower and starts blowing his driveway and walkway off.  He is retired, has all day everyday to do yard work, but no he decides it is ok on a Sunday morning!

He couldn't do this during the week after 8:00a, most people tend to sleep in on the weekends, that is very inconsiderate and thoughtless.

I have a couple of neighbors that have been getting very lax in keeping control of their large, not necessarily friendly dogs.  These are long time neighbors that have always been great!

I have asked them nicely, MANY times, to please make sure their dogs are leashed and under their control as I do not want them in my yard barking viciously, and scaring me.  I am going to report them the next time it happens as it seems they are not going to comply with the leash law.

Thankfully, my neighbors are quiet during early morning and late evening times.

I also have a neighbor with an aggressive dog and as often as I tell her to keep him back she says "oh he just needs to get to know you" yeah right, after he takes a bite out of my ankle.

@Estellee ...no, not the case, they are nice people, but have NO COMMON SENSE.  This is not the first time.

Oops,  I was in the process of editing my post. You are right, some people have no common sense, lol

I once had a hooker for a neighbor.   After an awful brawl one night, the cops escorted her and her companion OUT....for "operating a business in a residential building".

Ya can't pick your neighbors.....

In Arizona we can start at 7 am. I don't have a problem in the summer. I understand someone wanting to get the yard work done while it's still below 100 degrees (barely in June and July). Sometimes our lows are 95 degrees and it will be 100 by 8 am.  In winter, you should wait. Nobody around my area has grass to be mowed anyway (most people don't have grass, we have rock yards). It's usually a blower or tree trimmer.

@Mom2Dogs : Why not go over and talk to him . You say he's a nice guy . Be honest with him and suggest he wait a little longer on weekends to start his yard work .  He may surprise you .

What I disliike is people mowing, using loud clippers, weed whackers, etc. on a holiday when people are trying to have quiet cookouts or enjoying quiet times on their porches or patios.  I get it at times that people don't have any other time to do this, but it happens constantly where I live.
