That picture looks just like my fence, it goes all the way around my property and it's a decent fence, it just needs the trees and shrubs back for privacy. This morning I went out and part of it had been unhooked from the post and taken down. In that same spot where I had that fight yesterday. I'm not accusing anyone, but, it is raining here and I could see foot prints all around the new shrubs I put out there. If they're planning on killing the new shrubs and trees I spent so much on, that's a moronic thing to do. Wouldn't they have the sense to know that if their dogs couldn't see me we wouldn't have a problem? Maybe not, since they chain sawed it bare in the first place. I put the fence back up.*
People around here don't seem to understand that just because their property butts against yours, that doesn't make it all theirs. Even if they've been here longer. There are still legal property lines. I don't care what they want or what they think. I don't care what my mother told them or what they used to do with it before I moved here. This is my property and I am using it. I've just about had enough. NOW I'm getting pissed. Wouldn't you?

fuck yeah i'd be pissed....who the fuck do they think they are???
if you have some extra money, wooden fence sections are $25 at home depot....i'd pay a cousin to put a few of them up....THEN what they gonna do????
Pepper spray the trail so she tracks that tear gas back into her house through her pig feet.
What a bitch!.

I'd sit out there with a shot gun and wait. What a bitch.

no kidding. I'd take advantage of the fact that your father was an axe murderer. Totally walk around acting crazy cackling spells swinging an axe at their face and scare the shit out of them!
I would sprinkle a seed that evasive in their yard. I am not saying why I said that...like maybe I did do that and maybe I didnt..ROFL
*thanks all about the Fat Bs for friends. Yes, same ones that went to dance class..they are not going anymore. I have wii. Youngest and I play Just Danced on it.*
What is the point of unhooking your fence? You are obviously not dealing with reasonable people so expecting reasonable thought processes from them is a stretch. Reasonable people would not have helped your mom with such malevolent destruction. Obviously you will have to resort to more devious tactics, but simple enough for them to wrap their brains around. Fear is probably your best weapon.
i would spray the fence with cooking spray.....then liberally sprinkle cayenne pepper all over it....then if/when they touch it, oh will their hands burn!!!
i did that to a fence here where people were cutting thru to the next street....they don't do that no more!!! :)
Interesting Tia. Raining here though. I have to think on this, I really am tired of all these people, including my family. If I was a bitch that bothered people, it would be different. All I want is one quiet area on my own property and to be left alone.
i totally agree with wanting to be left alone!!! shit, my insane neighbor thinks she has more right to be in my driveway than me! WTF? some fucktards have the most twisted logic in the world....they are not rational....and they are dangerous because they perceive threats that really aren't there....
yeah, the spray/cayenne pepper has to be reapplied after it rains....boy it works...i got woke up one night at 12:30am by a guy yelling "it burns it burns" then he rubbed his face and his friend yelled "that was dumb".....hahahaha.....
you could plant some poison ivy on that fence too! :)
heidi----if you don't have wii fit plus, totally look into getting that....it'll track how many calories you burn a day and there's 60+ exercises for you to do....there's step aerobics, obstacle course, balance games, running---about 3 different running games....it is awesome!
it also tracks your weight too and you can set goals....
DD, how long have you lived in your house? Did your mom 'follow' you there and buy the one next to you?
Sic 'em DD! Let us know what you do!
go to the police now and file a complain before it escalates. they have no right to brake your fence.
Linda, two years. I got ths place when my son died. It was his house. My mom has been in her house about 30 years. They both sit on the same good sized property.
I know it sounds stupid, but you have to post a No Trespassing sign. Remember to turn it around so they can see it and make sure you get the new plants in the pics. (Do you still have the sales receipt?) They may be under the impression that your mom owns all the land. Even if you told them differently. Your mom has had longer to work on them than you have. Then take pictures of all the land that is yours. I hope you thought to take pics of the fence before you put it back up (and the foot prints). If not make a note in a notebook of what happened and the day and time you saw it. See what happens next! Continue to take pics and record as much as you can. Next, go to police station---I know you said they were a joke---make your complaint and make sure to get paper work to show your complaint on "official" letterhead. And make sure someone signs it ledgibly. If you can't read it, ask them to sign it again. Tell them it's in case you have to go to court to make sure this problem is taken care of. Who knows--you might have to end up there. If this still continues, go in person to the state police and very meekly (you are now the lady in distress-they will be more likely to help you if they think toy are helpless and being taken advantage of) ask if they can help you with this problem. Tell and show all your evidence and say that you filed a formal complaint and nothing was done. If they can't help you, ask them where can you go for help. No cops like pushy---you get more out of them with the helpless woman act!!! Yeah, I know it's erksome, but you got to play the game! If none of this works, call a lawyer that does free consoltations, tell him/her the facts and "imply, don't say" that if there is any money to be made out of this, it would be his---all you want is peace and quiet.
AND DON'T FORGET TO THROW IN YOUR MEDICAL CONDITION! I forgot to add that at the beginning.
The point I'm making is to change the way you are going about this. Speak nicely to everyone (even if it's eating you up inside). I wouldn't say anything to the neighbors--just record what is said.
If none of this works, call as many women that you can find and have a night of pagan rejoicing. The neighbors won't have any idea what's going on. Maybe leave some sticks on the ground pointing to there house. The mirror thing sounds good. Anything that will give them the creepy crawlies.
If the shit still keeps happening,
again, I know a guy who knows a guy!!!!
Sorry this is so long, but something has to work!!!
I also like Jarhead's and Miss Tia's ideas.
Also, Biz...I didn't know you had the old west approach to things. I'm impressed---it must be the hormones! Now go into labor with that attitude and the Bean should be seeing the world in no time at all!
I had a neighbor that kept parking right in front of our house. In the middles so no other cars could park there. They had a driveway..we did not. Fucking bitch.
It was a nice new pretty car too. So you want to know what I did Pat.
I watered my garden and accidentally got some water on her car. After that, I swept all the dust and dirt off the front stoop and steps. It drifted all over her car.
She never parked there again!
Plant some holly! Better yet. Plant some pricker bushes! All along the fence line.
Bayou -
LOL, must be the hormones. And the heat. And the *delightful* (she must also be hormonal) 2 year old I've spent the day with! I just can't believe the crap that Pat has had to deal with.
No going into labor for 1 more month. Mom's flight in is on the 5th of July. Baby can come anytime after that.
-Biz
^ that was me :)
-Biz
Yes, some holly, oregon's grape, thistle, or himalayan blackberries. I can send you some himalayan blackberry seeds when it's harvest time here if you don't have those in Iowa. They grow all over the place here in WA. These are super nasty vines and they withstand all the elements and all kinds of weather, but you'll have yummy berries each summer and are really hard to get rid of and grow fast. Think blackberry milkshakes, pies and smoothies, mmmm! Add some nettles hidden in the vines. Don't forget to swing that axe in front of them.
Electrify the fence!!
LOL!
Cayenne and electricity. She will be a fried up and tasty bitch!
Speaking of heat..I plant four Jalapeno plants today in the garden.
I planted some more tomato plants also. I am going to be hated and loved by the neighbors come august..LOL
There is nothing more maddening Than neighbors like that!!!!!
I would put up a security camera with motion detector lights, I would see what barriers I could put up to block the dogs view. A garden shed? Anything to give you some peace and quiet. I had a neighbor once who always let their dog take a dump in my yard, and they just laughed about it. I put up a fence and they threw the dog crap over the fence into my yard!
Set up a webcam and broadcast their shit to the world. Remember those people whose Obama sign kept getting stolen during the election in '08? They put a webcam on it and had thousands of people watching the signs for months.
Biz...glad to hear mom is coming. Is she bringing the "tagalong" with her? Is he still around? Hadn't had an up date in a while.
Jarhead...would it be possible to electrify that fence with a car battery? We need a little "Macgyver" (sp) action here!!!
But seriously, you may have to do it the legal way. I know it takes all the fun out of it but sometimes that is the way you have to go.
Bayou -
We don't talk about him, I've asked her to keep that life separate from her relationship with my family. I assume he's not coming because she says she'll be with Sam 24/7 and she knows he's not welcome here. So we'll see.
Chrissy-
I like that idea too!
-Biz
Pepper spray, cayenne and PAM, axes, Poison Ivy, electrified fences .... THIS IS WHY I LOVE THIS SITE!
Seriously though from a "professional" stand point see if you have a legal survey in your possesion. I'd make sure my fence was where it should be before I'd rumble or ..... MAYBE you will find they are on YOUR property!!!!
You'll need that survey anyways for that wooden fence you are probably out buying now. AND if you are going the fence route see if you need a permit from the GunTown official permit yokel to install it. You don't want the W.T. neighbor getting the upper hand by calling the code officer!
It's not property in question. It is MY property, the lawn directly behind my damn house. Oh, there's no question.
I love Tia's idea about those moveable fences, but, there's no home store here. I'd have to rent a truck and drive 180 miles..and I don't think I could lift those by myself.
DD ~ The best ideas are miss tia's and Jarhead's with the pepper/ Pam and pepper spray. They'll get it on their hands, later wipe it on their face and never know what hit em. Several years ago I was dog walking with my daughter, she walking her dog, I walking the foster pup. About a block from my house a neighbor's dog came snarling, snapping, ready to attack came running up a side street towards us. The Kid always walks with pepper spray in her pocket for situations like this. She yelled at the owner to call their dog, ... nothing. Yelled again, owner gave a weak call, dog was almost upon us when I saw her hand going in the pocket. She sprayed the dog 3 times & it never stopped. Owner finally got there, scooped up this snarling rat (dog covered w/ spray) and took the dog home. Fifteen minutes later in our walk a truck pulled up beside us and asked if we knew anything about the spraying. Seems the little lady got her hands covered w/ spray and wiped her face w/ the hands. ... Keep your damn dog under control and this won't happen.
The video camera is a good idea too. If they're as dumb as my neighbor this could work. I have a neighbor that there have been major problems w/ for almost 30 years (we now speak civilly). The kids had a play fort in the back yard, built above the sandbox. When son was 8/9 y.o. he and friend took an old bird house & nailed it to the top of the fort w/ the hole facing the neighbor's house. They kept making comments about a camcorder while they were up there, also had a cord hanging out of the box. Neighbor bought it hook, line and sinker. She quit coming into our yard. Thought we had a camera trained on her house. Dumb shit, we didn't even own a camera.
That idea worked in the shop for known shoplifters. We bought a 6 dollar fake camera that moved on battery power and in front of them we'd ask each other if we had "checked the vid tapes that week?" Totally worked.
Might be worth a $6 expenditure to freak out the neighbors. Do you have anyone that can install a motion sensor light on the side of your house, pointed at the fence ... to discourage any night time raids?
Starting to sound like a Master Card ad:
Fake camera - $6
cayenne pepper - $3
Pam - $3
Keeping neighbors out of your yard - Priceless.
CJ, I'm just planning on standing up for myself. I can use my own yard and they can go fuck a pole.
This is just a case of being bullied. I get it from all sides around here. Tired of avoiding confrontation by letting them have their way.
