I have sad news regarding my Skanky Neighbors. Yesterday, around 4PM (in the pouring rain - I simply cannot figure these people out) Mr. Skanky Neighbor showed up and started furiously clearing stuff away and - brace yourselves - removed the garbage bag hanging from the lamppost. Now we'll never know what was in there, but I think Sandy (guess: body parts) and K'vitsh (guess: dead baby) were probably on the right track.
Also, I think I know what prompted the flurry of clean-up and the tarp covering the dead branches. Alan says there's a house for sale in our subdivision. I bet those people, or their realtor, complained about the Skanky Neighbors because it would hurt their chances of a sale and a top sale price. If so, I'm glad - I didn't want to get involved, possibly start a neighbor war, etc. but I'm glad they've shaped up the property. Our house will be for sale soon, so we'd face the same issue.

Don't be too sad, honey. Given the experiences I have had, you won't have a problem finding MORE skanky neighbors.
Love, Mom

Hey, yesterday, Leigh-Ann met our new neighbors. The woman came running out of the house and gave Leigh-Ann a big hug. And, and, AND, they said they didn't even NOTICE Dante barking in the middle of the night, and that they were glad to have big dogs next door. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, we've gotten lucky TWICE. We'll have to find something nice to give them to welcome them to the neighborhood. We've been meaning to, but now that we KNOW they're nice, we must do it ASAP. Or, maybe we can take them to dinner or something.
