Love thy Neighbor?

Recently I have had some problems with a neighbor two doors down a few weeks back. This started weeks ago and things have been civil lately. There still has been distractions I'll call them. But then comes Halloween morning. The kids got up for school (I had requested the day off so I could take the kids trick or treating, as I usually work till 6 or 7). Well they go out the front door and there's smashed pumpkin, spaghetti noodles along with empty garbage bags. There's toilet paper in our bush at the side of the house, mustard and ketchup are all over the side of the house and someone cut down all our Halloween ghosts we put up on the porch and in the tree. The kids are irate, but I just chuckle to myself.

I get the kids off to school and then I go out with a shovel and a rake and get the garbage picked up and the toilet paper off the tree and I grab the string and rehang the ghosts, took all of 30 to 40 minutes. They saw me outside picking it all up and I was laughing having a good ole time. Claire is in the door watching as the ghosts are restrung, telling up that we saved Halloween.

Fast forward about 4 hours and I get a knock at my door and it's my neighbor from two doors down (Now granted the last time the police where called she was told to leave us alone and we were told to leave them alone.) and she brings her friend our direct neighbor from next door with her. They incoherently go on about her van being put up on Craigslist and having over 100 text messages and wants to know if I did it. I laughed at her and said, I don't know your number, I don't want to know it and it wasn't me. The lady then starts cussing and yelling and tells me she's going to get her lawyer involved and I told her to please go ahead and I then kindly ask her to leave my property about 3 times. She walks off my porch turn around in my yard and says. I'm moving in a month. I offered to help her pack. She then tells me to just wait until then and that's she's from the hood. I laughed and then called the police (I called because she made another threat) They came told her if she came into our yard again she was going to jail.

This morning I get up to go to work and there's toilet paper in my bushes again. I expected so much more from someone from the hood
