What An Awesome Weekend!

Fall is here!  Leaves are falling!

 Saturday, 9/28 we got the veggie
garden bed all cleaned up and 
then covered the beds.
Then I worked on the Perennial 
Hibiscuses and got the two largest 
ones cut up and took some cuttings.
Down to just 6 to go.  I even got a
few Clematis put away.

Sunday 9/29 morning we started 
on the last of the tree mess on the
east fence line.  Now we hope the
fence will stop moving as their roots
were making it bow.  Matter of fact
the fence company said they couldn't
do any more for it until the trees
were gone.

We had built a PVC rack for the ladders
and them cover them with Plastic to keep
them dry.  DH was glad to see they didn't
rust due to the mess!  He remove 20 
gallons of mess and now I can get out
there to clean the fence.  I will have to 
remove all the edgers to get more mess
removed and then clean the fence.   Yes,
I'll be bleaching them clean!

Taking a break before doing more Clematis.

9/30/2024 -- Monday
I got the edgers pulled and then I cleaned out
what was behind them.  I cleaned the area next
and had a full 5 gallon bucket!

I then cleaned the deck, the lawn and 3 of the 
north flower beds besides the Peony bed.  I 
took a full bucket and 1/2 off those areas.  Ya
go out there now and there are leaves again.

Photos to come,

Getting Ready For The Next Surgery!

 A lot of stress here so I may have
to take a break.  We have weathered
DH surgery, two tree service removing
trees on adjacent properties and the 
legal action that were filed when there
was no crime committed according to
the report filed.  More on that one after
our next court date, the original post was
put in draft as I update it.  Don't want to
stress out the person that filed it!  The story
will all come out with doc as our proof.
It will be public records by then.

Let's just say lots of doctors appt. to get
ready for this next surgery.



 

I Want To Thank Everyone That Has Visited!

 You keep my counts going up! 

If you don't like the truth I speak 
then don't read my blog! 


What A Beautiful Morning Of Rain!

 The rain may cut back on my time
being out cutting back but ya know
I feel the dark clouds will soon part!

The yard is disappearing fast.

A photo from Monday:




















Photo from Thursday:




















A great way to relieve all the stress of the 
issues from the hood.  Yes, our grass is green
but it's been a challenge due to the high temps
of this summer.  The back yard is another 
story as we won't water the north lawn this
year.  We have the veggie garden almost 
emptied out and trying to decide if we will
grow veggies next year due to climate change.

What An Awesome Day!!

Ya know when one door closes there
are many other doors to open!  : )
I love the legal system!!

Come On Rain!

 92 degrees today so not much got
done.  Blue Berries got cut back, 
the nana leaves that were stripped 
off the trunks then they were laid
by the south fence, all leaves were cut up and
put in the yard debris bin.  Then 
later in the afternoon I was able
to get a couple Clematis cut 
back and tucked away.  

But the weather folks are saying 
rain and in the 70s on Wed.  A better
day to play!

9/25/2024

What a great day to play in the rain!
Several down pours and I got a lot
done and cut back. I started the day
by getting the yard debris from out
back and as I walked past the north
lawn and saw all the pine on the 
ground.  Got to the deck and it was
all over that too!  Got the bin to the 
front and then I took the broom to the
deck, picked up a full dust pan of pine.
I then cut back a few Perennial Hibiscus
as it wasn't 9:00am to mow.   When it was
time to mow I dropped the mower blade
all the way down to pick up the pine mess.
When I emptied the mower bag it was
mainly pine mulched up.  Then I got to 
back to work on cutting down the 
Perennial Hibiscus until the rain hit
and I switched to doing the Clematis
on the south side of the driveway.  Putting
them away after they were cut back.
They all needed to rest for the winter
months. 




Lipton Ice Tea Unsweetened

 I have just learn that they are going to
discontinue this 3 oz jar that makes 30
quarts.  My favorite tea that isn't 
sweetened or flavored.  I do not do the 
bottled teas at all, just don't like the taste.

As far back as I can remember there was
a jar of Lipton Tea in the cabinet.   


So sad.

September's Clean up

 This evening was time to cleanup the
mess up under the north trees.  I removed
'4 full bags' of maple leaves, needles and 
can now see the the mulch that was put
down earlier this year.   My yard is now
cleaned again.












We will see how long it takes the tree service to 
dump into our yard.  It's to be in the 90s today!
So you think it's wise to cover the bed, nope!!
Yes, we sit higher than the lot to the north as 
the farmer made a 9 foot drop cut right by our 
fence!  Ya think the water runs down hill??

I have the rain barrels close to the deck covered.

9/24/2024

The tree service did a nice job keeping the wood
chips to the north of our fence as they did trees
north of the ones on the fence line.  We will see
if this continues.  They say rain tomorrow!

9/25/2026

Well I was out early before the rain hit at noonish!
Got the bin pulled to the front and while walking
across the north lawn I saw all the dead pine across
the grass area.  Yep, even on the deck.  No way to 
pick that up and so I mowed this am.  I swept off the 
deck and picked up a full dust pan of what fell.  When 
I mowed there was more pine than grass in the catcher.

9/27/2024

They left the dying trees that drop the pine and we 
were told one Maple would taken out.  Guess he
lied again.  For years now we have dealt with the 
tree roots pulling up our fence and bowing.  One
time when DH tried up level the fence he removed
a section and got yelled at.  You see they removed
their fence that the hearing examiner stated they
needed.  So when DH removed a section to fix it
what can one say??  Since these trees were all planted
about the same time they became supports for each 
other.  So if you remove some, what will happen if they
don't have that support??  I know and we were watching
today as they swayed with the wind.  Now comes the 
leave gathering as they have been coming down now 
for a few weeks. Tree roots are a pain to deal with.

9/30/2024

Today after cleaning up from the East tree service
I was able to vac up the leaves and pine out of the
three north beds, peony bed and off the deck.  1 1/2
buckets of pine with a lot of leaves.  

Photos to come.

The Year of the Skeleton----Happy Halloween!

 This year we decided to do Skeletons
as our main item for Halloween.  I started
gather and putting out the first items the
end of August.  

Early this week, I got bones # 2 & 3 to 
add to the collection.  One 5 footer and
one 10" to go by the front door.  

But it wouldn't sit in the black cloth, so
I hung him on the plant pole.




















The 5 footer was placed on top of the arbor.
















Then Sunday, today I got Bones #4, well there
is only one spot for this one! Right out front!




















Here is the start post:

will find green, purple and 
red twinkle lights lighting 
up the area.

Our Ludger Project 2024

 I had put this Brugmansia away for 
the winter month a few weeks ago 
when I put them all away.  But she 
was full of buds and when they started
to open she was unhappy.  So mid week
I pulled her out.  She has been blooming
on the driveway!









































































This is a hybrid from a European hybridizer that 
shared seeds for testing with several folks.   It is 
an honor to be trusted in growing her to the lovely
plant she is today!

Yes, we strip the leaves when they go inside the 
Brugmansia House.  Less mess and there is a difference
from the outside leaves and the inside leaves.

9/24/2024

This am when I pulled the recycle bins up I noticed
a faint orange would the edge of the bloom.

9/28/2024

I have been collecting pollen from this aurea cross
if hybridizer would like some.  Let me know, I can send
vials or in plastic bags.

Tree Roots

 Today was my day to work out back.
First, I find that the squirrels had taken 
the first seedpod on the new Tree Peony
so my work is gone!

Then I got the wisterias all shaped up 
again before watering.  I kept hitting
one paver and it kept moving.  Then I
noticed that another paver was pulled 
upward.  So after I got the last of the 
veggie garden put away, it was time 
to pull out my Martha Stewart half
moon tool to pull the pavers up.   I
had a heck of a time pulling them up.
After several tries I was able to move 
them so I could find why they were 
doing what they were doing.  

 The first one I found a lot of dirt so
I scraped it off but I look down and
saw roots.  The second one I hit some
thing and there was another root!




















The north pathway and you can
see one of the areas.  That is where
I fell several years ago when I 
stepped on the paver.  I did not 
take it up until today.  You can see
how close to the house this is.


  



































We have found roots in the upper garden
beds and into the grass but not this close
to the house.

If some of you remember a couple years
ago I took a fall when the pavers gave way
and I had the ladder in my arms headed for
the roof to clean. After tossing the ladder
I continued to the ground on my right side.
This is when all the issues with the leg
started.  I didn't at that time check the 
paver, now I wish I would of!  Well yesterday
I did and wow, what a shock!




















Then we took a look at the other paver, that DH
said was moving.  I had put down plastic, then sand
before putting the paver walkway down and river
rock around the paver area.
















Here is what was removed today as we both 
were feeling under the weather. after they were
removed.














We are going to be pulling all the pavers
up in this area to make sure we got them
all cut.

Right by the fence.















What can one say???

More Rain This Evening!!

 Thanks Mother Nature for the rain 
we badly needed and helping water
the lawn after I put down the fall 
fertilizer!

Can you tell we need rain when I
keep posting about Rain??


Accosted On A Public Street This AM

Don't ya just love your neighbors
when they are wrong?  Can't fix 
their stupidity!!  Or should I 
scream Elderly Abuse?

Since the wood chips were blowing 
down to the end of the circle it was
time to clean the circle.  I would 
say I was half way done when I 
looked up to find the neighbor to 
the east videoing me blowing the 
chips back up their way.  I stopped 
and waved, but kept cleaning up 
their mess.  I then got flipped off!  
I just shook my head and then came 
the verbal abuse.  I told her she didn't
have permission to video me so she 
better stop. I stop the blower and 
she kept telling me to get off her 
property!!  So if this is your property 
then you should be cleaning up
the mess not allowing it to blow 
into your neighbor's yards. 

Excuse me this is a public roadway, 
so what if you property goes out 
into the roadway.  Cleaning up 
your mess!  I sure shouldn't be 
doing this but one gets tired of 
driving over wood chips and bark.

Then I get the poor me bit as I'm
doing the best I can, I'm an educator
and I'm pregnant, news to us as we 
have never talked to them.  They have 
only come at us screaming while 
flipping us off.  Or the constant stalking
when we go to the mailbox, 'Hi Neighbor'
on a daily bases.
She also called me retired, bitter old _____
and a few other choice names.  
Then I said wow, for an educator to
say things like that is just priceless. Again they
have never talked to us so how do they 
know us or what we do?  You know 
me I don't waste my time with words,
She said nothing I wanted to hear! 
 
Well that sounds like a personal 
problem to me and look who made 
this mess?  She was on the phone 
to Daddy whom owns the property
not her and her husband.  She also
said I needed to call the cops, is 
that what her Dad told her?   So 
I'm waiting to see if they will show 
up for me cleaning the street.

I didn't go at her but she charged at
me and didn't want to hear anything
I said,  what a bully!  Oh she also 
stated we didn't come greet them when 
they moved in, no way am I wasting my
time on them.  They are acting like the 
previous owners and wanting our attention,
not going to happen nor am I going to 
help them with anything.  I will continue 
to clean the roadway like I promised
the county staffer.  If we are lucky to 
see a street sweeper every 6 months.  
This past month the sweeper didn't come 
down at all as they know how well I keep 
the street clean.  Can't wait for the leaves 
to fall this year as I won't be cleaning!
More surgery and I can't wait to see the 
CT scan to see if I re-injured my knee.

This is now the fourth time this
family has done this. Three from her 
and once for him. Beside them turning 
me into code enforcement.
Code Enforcement officer was just 
blown away as they claimed that I 
was a nursery and selling plants.  I asked
him to read the sign, it reads karma 
'Happy Toes' Gardens by appointment 
only! He also asked if we had issues 
with neighbor recently.  Yes, and I told
him both came at me this past weekend.  
He asked if it was the ones to the east, 
yes.  You know he is standing at the 
window. Yep, normal spot.   We 
exchanged cards.  He said he would 
make a note in the file,   Then he drove 
off, there are code violations at their 
house but I didn't mention them.

Today's generation is full of themselves!  
Bullies and have no clue!!  So you want 
to live at the end of a dead end circle 
where it's supposed to be quite??  

My husband had a good chuckle at 
what I told him and how stupid she was!  
I like the threat of her saying call the cops.  
This isn't an offence that needed one to call
the Sheriff's department for.  I think that is 
what her Dad told her, sorry she was the 
aggressor by the verbal abuse and I was 
on her property!  I was on a public street!  
So why wasn't she cleaning up the mess?   
Most folks feel if it's in the street why 
bother cleaning it up!  The wood chips 
and chunk had been there for over a week.  
They didn't clean up after their tree trimmers
left a mess.  They don't care about the 
neighborhood.  

What I took away from the verbal 
abuse was she was upset I was retired and 
I have a beautiful yard, she was having 
to clean up her yard while being pregnant.
For a pregnant person to act in the manner,
it was just unbelievable!  She sure isn't
winning friends by the way she acts!

Her Dad showed up to help her clean up.....
just maybe they should live in an apt. as they
haven't cleaned that yard and we have seen 
the grass get over 3 foot tall.  Thistle every 
where and my bet they had no clue what 
they would be left with with when those 
trees came down.  

Ya only see them come out to sit in their 
chairs, play when Dad shows up with
his bikes and nothing more.

Now you know why we won't have 
anything to do with our neighbors!
Yes, the cameras were put up due to 
neighbors and one stealing plants.

I could of said to her I just had knee 
surgery and should of been recovering
but your tree trimmer left a mess in 
our yard.  But no, I cleaned up the 
mess and am still cleaning up your 
mess if you own the street!  All 9 of 
our neighbors are trips!  We have learned
not to greet new neighbors due to what
one new neighbor stated to me!  "Your 
the lady that calls the Police."  I asked
whom he got that information from?  
All I could do was shake my head.  It
seems it's coming from one house! Ya
don't call the police, you call 911 and 
then they direct it to the Sheriffs for 
all county citizens.  So if one of your
neighbors are spreading these lies about you 
why would one want to talk to neighbors if
they believe this?  Why waste your time?
So now we know they judge a book by the 
cover!

GIS shows this property has change 
over several times while they have lived there,
just like the drug house across the street before
they move out after the arrest of the guy who
was stealing gas and it was stored in the blatter
of the truck he drove.

Daddy showed up but didn't stay long.
Then the kids went inside also after he left.   
There is just the appearance we are doing 
something.   

All you have to do is look around and see
whom cares about where they live.   Our home 
used to be one of them when we first moved
in but for over 30+ years we have kept it up!  
Guess who does 95% of the work here??  
So whom has time to deal with this type of 
abuse?  

She called the 911 and talked to a Sheriff
according to the 911 report and the Sheriff
report.  The case was closed without a visit
to us from the deputy as he found she wasn't
creditable.  We found this out after
a request from both agencies for a copy.

I have photos to back up that no leaves were
blown into their yard, as it was just the saw
dust and bark left in the roadway after this
attack. 

9/20/2024

We had a deputy show up at our door and
bring out the court orders where this neighbor
was requesting a restraining order against
us.  One just gets tired of all this but what
can one say.  My words to the deputy was,
"Now which neighbor wants a piece of me?"
So glad he had his camera on so that is on 
record.  We talked and he told us that we
should be calling the Sheriff dept.  This is
totally not right.  Thank goodness the courts
denied her claim.  But we still had to respond
to what she wrote and boy was it stupid!  NO
proof just her words.   Sorry but I doc everything
and was in here putting it in my blog/journal.
Love the fact she stated she put the video on her
Instagram site after I told her she had to rights
to video me without my permission.

9/21/2024

Let me add this here, both the neighbors
to the south of the circle have lawn service.
Both use loud gas blowers and neither one
of them have had these two come screaming
at them for using their blowers.  Last fall
the one guy noticed I was limping and he finished 
the one yard and then grabbed his blower to 
help me blow out the circle as he said I needed
some help due to limping.

Today the other lawn service came in and again
used the gas blower, blowing it to the north right
in front of their yard.  All the plant material from
the middle of the circle to their side of the street.
No one came out screaming at him!

There is the appearance this is harassment is geared
towards me!  We have submitted information to 
the courts and had them served.  They didn't do this
before heading to court and this is why the court
denied their claim.  No documentation either.

Funny they ran to the courts after I made this
post on my blog!

We were able to obtain the 911 report and 
this is a neighbor issue according to what was
written up.  They were told to take this to 
mediation and found it not creditable.  The 
Sheriff Officers didn't make contact with us.
I was available all day but no contact.

Let's take this back to when the Drug Dealers
tried to pull the same thing!  I believe the officer
that came out, he was the same and he told me at that
time these folks were just trying to get my attention.
It was explained about my pinched nerve and what
type of electrical blower/vac was used.  These have
not enough power to do what they say, especially as
they age.

Funny thing is the US Marshalls got their attention
also!   You wouldn't believe what we caught on our
video cameras then.  We also watched the drug bust
go down and talked to the Officers that were sent out
to get the kid, whom left the property right before the
bust.  Let's just say there has been so many drug busts
across the circle, one knows when they show up to grab
the kids and animals and leave while law enforcement
are in the area.  

We just updated our camera system from the hard wired to
the newer ones that now linked to our phones.  But 
we hoped that the issues we dealt with in the past 
would calm down with these newer neighbors moving
in and those old neighbors calling the Sheriff all the time.
Yes, they are the ones that called 911 all the time, not us.
We will be updating more of the cameras shortly due 
to what we are currently using are better quality and have
audio.  

Funny thing is the current folks used the same real estate
agent as the previous owners and so if you put 2 and 2 
together you will know that we are dealing with.

Again it's funny these folks don't pull the abuse with the
other lawn service folks that use gas blowers to blow the 
mess their way.  Nor do they clean up the mess, either.

I also have to ask why all the interest in our property??

So what is the penalty for filing a false report and 
doing the same with the courts?  Read the RCW post.



More to come on this after we go to court!

We asked the Court yesterday to delay so we
could seek legal council.  Reset to October 10th
and I raised an issue with my doctors appt. which 
I thought was in the afternoon and it was the same
time as the Court time.  I didn't have my phone in 
court so I could access it.  

I had a great chuckle when going through security!
I asked why they didn't go through my bag?  When
I went through the scanner all the bells went off!  Yep
though total knee replacements set those things off.
I got to see the scan of the bag and then asked if I
carry an inhaler and I told her, yes and an epi pen due
to health issue.  I can't go without them, I try to leave
them in the van but today I was dealing with my allergies
and that is why the mask.  She was so nice and I took the
time to educate, stress can active the issues fast.  When we
left we went out the door and wish then a good day.  

It was important for us to file the new Cresa 
911 report with the courts.  It states no crime 
was committed and if there was a crime it 
would of sent an Deputy to our door, which
didn't happen. So she filed for Harassment 
and skipped what was recommended mediation 
and to put cameras on their house.  They won't 
do that due to they are the ones Stalking and Harassing us!

The Deputy that came out to our door after the 
Courts denied their request, was the first signs 
there was an issue.  I posted this post before 
someone saying she is stressed?   Excuse me?  
Why is she so stressed for filing a Frivolous claim? 
Just unbelievable!! She is the one doing the 
attacking as I was just out cleaning the roadway.
 Not once but several times has she charged at 
me!  She doesn't go after the other lawn service 
folks with their gas blowers that blow the debris 
their direction.  I have an electric one that doesn't 
have the power of those gas ones.  

To allow yard debris to go into the street 
is a code violation!  So clean up your 
Public street.   If there is an accident you can
be held liable if your allow the leaves in the street.  

Now you know why we want to seek legal 
council.  I have done my best in filing information.  
I understand the legal process and a couple
attorneys have told me I should become a attorney!


10/10/2024

More Stalking!!

We hired an attorney last week and today
when we went to court he asked for a 
continuance as he wants a no contact order
emailed to them.  We went to the van after
the hearing and was trying to text him when
I looked up to find the her dad's car had pulled 
in at an angle, mom's car went by and went
west and shortly after that the neighbors 
pulled down the roadway where we were 
parked.  Now who is stalking who??

We went to the attorney's office afterwards.
we both were shaking!


10/19/2024
While working to get the greenhouse covered
we noticed that the neighbors were moving their
carport between their house and our fence.  We
could hear them as they were making their present
know by being loud.  We stopped and did lunch.
I returned later to finish putting up the tarps and
tacking them down.  We put up a 6 foot PVC fence
on the property line as the previous neighbor had 
a large dog that was taught to charge the fence when
anyone was out there.  

On one occasion I had a couple local Sheriffs show up at my
door and they said someone file a complaint I was growing
MJ on our property.  I invited them for a tour so they 
could look around for themselves that this was not true.
One officer went to pet the dog and I warned him not to.
When the dog came charging at the chainlink fence that
was up at the time he pulled his hand back as the dog was
showing his teeth at him.  The two officers were impressed
with what they saw and I answered all their questions.  They
found nothing!  Please note the file that I'm allergic to MJ so
other officers don't have to waste their time.  These are the 
type of Sheriff's calls I have had to deal with due to the previous
owners pulled.  More can be added.



10/22/2024

Worked with the paralegal today and my 
computer went down!  Why??

10/24/2024

Met our attorney at his law firm for Zoom
with the court.  Let's keep this short, they 
didn't appear but now have an attorney.
Judge stated one week and was ready to 
denied but will let the attorneys work on this.
Wait to you hear whom they hired!

10/30/2024

Court day and again was hit with more harassment
as they filed after a business day some more doc
with more lies.  Now they are saying I tried to hit 
her and none of the stories are the same.  Our attorney
stated we needed to reply to their filings.  Why???  These
were not filed in a timely manner, but after hours?
He is still hoping for a no contact order to be signed.
Sorry if they didn't sign the other one what do you 
think they want??   At least the court heard him when
he stated that his client would be unavailable for a while
due to her up coming surgery.  January 9th new court date.

What got me was all the lies and she did this under the fact
she can get hit with perjury!  She also proved to us that she 
and the previous owners were friends as they are doing the 
same things.  More lies and carrying on the vendetta.  You 
would just die laughing when you read their demands.  If you 
remember my blog there are lots of posts but I cut it back to
the top post being read.  One of the demands is I take my blog
down!   I'm betting she has plenty of post on her Instragram
she isn't deleting what she filed.  These demands have
nothing to do with her saying I attacked her, which is a lie!
So she takes a video and sends it to our attorney.  Why?  I 
viewed the camera and saw what she did to me, it sure didn't
make her look good.

Again we are getting a real estate person emails.

11/1/2024

Before surgery I spent time answering questions when I
should of been relaxing.  BP has been over 180 so I may
not have surgery if they can't get it down.  11/11/2024
surgery date.


11/7/2024

A delay in surgery, I got bumped to the 11/14/2024 still
dealing with high BP.   Check in time will be 7:30 am and
if the BP is still high they will cancel.

11/14/2024

Check in time confused several of the staff, I did what I 
was told to do.  Surgery was not until 10:30-11:30 am in hope
the BP would come down.  Not fun having you BP taken
so much and when it final came down it was then what
I would say to low.    Surgery went well and now I have
heart meds to take for the next month.  PT was started
the same day and that will continue until the end of Dec.
when they cut me loose.  I did 6 weeks not the normal
8 weeks of PT before being cut loose.

11/ 25/2024

PT today and then I go see the CPA afterwards.  Still using
the walker but told today I can start using the cane.  A few
days shy of the 2 week mark and the band aids came off
with a great report.  Continue the PT until the end of Dec.

12 / 23/ 2024

Today I saw the CPA, 6 weeks out and they cut me loose!
So I canceled the last PT and rescheduled the last PT for
mid Jan. to make sure I can take a trip to see our son.


1/9/2025

Court day!!
We went into our attorney's office for video with the
court after the stalking issue of 10/10 2024.   Again
we find out after hours our attorney received another
demand from their attorney.  More of the same harassment
from the neighbors.  We told our attorney we have 
stayed clear of our neighbors, matter of fact I don't
go into the yard due to them.  On 1/8/2025 I did get out to
the front south to get the last of the leaves from our
trees picked up and again pick up the street.  I had a 
nice conversation with the postal carrier.   He remarked
how well we kept up our property and made a request
that I had to turn down.  I told him what he could do
and he thanked me.  But I only go out for short periods
to get the mail or pick up the street.  I have way to much
to finish on the back for the fall cleanup that I had to wait
until our yard debris bins were empty to finish.

Back to the courts on the next hearing time.  There is no way
I could be in two places.   I turned on the phone after the
court video was closed.   Sure enough it's at 8:45am when
the judge wanted to set the time for court at 9am.  Court, 
again was delayed for two weeks but I told our attorney
I had a doctor's appt. so he was going to have to get back
to the courts with the time. 

 So our attorney visited with us and we were sent by 
email their current demands.  He mentioned the 
camera issue, we both looked puzzled as we have 
had cameras up for over 15 years!  It was explained
to him that the new ones are motion detected and we have
no control,  the one in question is set for the gate to
the greenhouses to monitor who comes and goes 
since there has been issues in the past with plants
being stolen.  I then opened the phone to the camera
app and pulled up the camera that was of issue.  He
agreed that it was not directed to their area, besides
he saw that they put the carport there.  The cameras
aren't designed to look into windows.

We could of said look at the upstairs window where 
we have caught they standing many times.  But 
he now knows why it's there.  

Again they have never come to us, nor have they 
ever told told us about using our blower.  But again
they don't scream at the gas blowers, just at me
when I clean the street.  Again I have my photos 
of the street and find no leaves being blow onto 
their property after I'm done.   One of their demands 
is no blower and not more photos of their property. 
Sorry but with me not being able to scoop the snow 
I'll be using the blower.  

Our attorney sent them off the final offer from us
and it's the same one they got many weeks ago, no
contact.  Which they refuse to sign.   They are the 
ones doing the harassing, stalking and bullying/
elderly abuse.  We want nothing to do with them!

My husband and I have been trained to doc issues
just for cases like this. One needs to protect one
self due to folks like this.

It was also nice to talk plants with our attorney!
He wanted to know about the surgery and how 
it was going.  He learned about complications 
that can come up and we weren't told about during
the educational process.  I deal with both legs
having the ham string pulled and now the left 
leg is numb, a reason to see the PT later in the
month.  My trip was canceled due to this until
later.  He is surprised I'm still doing my yard
and gardening this year.  It may take me longer
but it will be done!  Got to keep active just move
slower.

Last night we emailed the attorney and asked him
to let us know when the court sets the next hearing.


2/11/2025 was the next date.

We arrived to fine another late night filing was
received with more harassment.  We told our attorney
we didn't have time to respond so this should be tossed
out.  Puzzled that they would file this now after they 
had this since Jan.?  But again more harassment and
it had nothing to do with the so called attack that was
claimed.  The judge heard what our attorney stated about
this late filing and tossed it!  Their attorney kept stating 
stuff from their demands and our attorney stated what
we have gone out of our way to not use the blower.  The 
blog was cut down to the bare min. but she kept saying
stuff that didn't have anything to do about the so called
attack.  He then spoke about the cameras, the blog and 
the blower.  But again their attorney keep spouting the
lies until the judge said enough and stated she would
have a ruling in two weeks.  Video was closed and we
chatted a bit before heading home.


3/4/2025

The judge handed down her ruling!  She denied their
claim entirely!  So now we wait to see if they appeal her
decision.

Let me add here, we have been in front of several judges
with this case and at the end of each, they have stated
that they would denied the claim but the case was continued.

Her story keeps changing from what she first wrote to 
file this.  Her lies were just priceless and never the same.
What was filed with their attorney had nothing to due with
the so called assault she claimed. They filed no doc. to 
support the so called attack nor did they file the video 
with the courts.  The judges face was of shock when she
heard of the video and it wasn't filed with the court.  It sure
didn't shine a good light on the neighbor as she danced and
screamed at me.  

One of the stories was she stated I ran down our driveway
to assault her.  All I could say is she got caught in that lie when
I filed photos of my legs after surgery.  I have not been able to
run since the fall that cause me to have surgery and now I deal
with pulled ham strings so you think I'm running?

All I will say is Gaslighting to make themselves look good is 
what they filed and further the harassment, abuse and vendetta.
