New Home for Me and the Chids
Well it seems my bad neighbor has inspired me to look elsewhere for a nice place to grow my plants and orchids. During the hot summer months I attempted to summer some of my orchids outside on the patio. The patio is, as they call it, a "COMMON" space where I live and due to complaints from 1 neighbor I was told I had to remove my plants.
Thats fine I was going to take them inside anyway. In fact I had before they said anything. Im fast. Some people are just joy killers as their own lives are so freeking sad and crappy. The only joy they have themselves is killing others joy and trying to make others lives as sad and crappy as their own.
I had been living in the same spot for 15 years and Im done with it. Ive had run ins with this guy before and IM DONE. Hes just a jackass half wit.
I Cant argue with an idiot bec he has experience.
Oct 15 around there somewhere I have a new home for my chids. Complete with my own little fenced in patio and garden area  I cant wait to get out there and start digging. Double French doors open up from the study to the patio which is going to be the orchid perch. Im thinking already  and starting to pack it up this next weekend.
Do you ever recall moments in your life where you have this feeling that your life has just changed? .Mine has just changed.

That's cool that you're moving. No more nasty neighbor.  You must be already planning were all the orchids are going to go on their new patio!

Glad you're finding somewhere else to live but it's a damn shame YOU have to move! I have just awful neighbours on one side of me. When they moved in they boasted of how much they had stolen to me and another neighbour....who the hell does that???? Be happy!

Sometime a bad neighbor can be just that a bad neighbor...this guy actually threatened me with harm, kicked in my front door and then blocked my entry and wouldn't let me go back inside. I should have filed a terroristic threat against him and had him charged with assault after he shoved me. Mind you I have a big mouth but Im only 5 foot 5  . If one is so damn defeated all they have left is threats of physical harm cus they cant beat you with their limited vocabulary,as I dont understand to well, guttural grunting and chimp like teeth bearing combined with the chest beating.
That kind is beat before they get started.. Its win win for me. Sometimes you got to leave people where they standing, bec they will drag you down with them.
the lord works in mysterious ways to get us to move into the direction we need to be moving in. I see this as a sign from God to move on
I even have a MOAT around me now too!!!

You need a boat, to float on your moat.

"Always appreciate the good things in life when they come."
Sometimes we get so busy with other things in life we forget to do this
Sounds like good things are coming your way and you are primed to enjoy it to the fullest

Wow, great moat!
That's great news that you've found somewhere new and somewhere with a patio for the chids. I'm sure you'll love it!

Hmmm.... Sounds like an ignoramus maximus/dickus headus cross... But I'd need a picture to confirm
From what I know of this species they are unlikely to reach full maturity and almost impossible to bloom!
Wishing u and the 'chids many happy years I'm ur new home RJ x

Congrats on leaving a bad situation. I'm sure you will have better luck in a more peaceable place and your chids will reflect it. Now we will have even more to be jealous of from you!
