My neighbor and I finally had it out today. I'm tired of her bitching about my dog, but the first time I complain about something, she has to freak out about it. It ended with me calling her a nasty name and slamming my door. I'm hope that she enjoyed it. She didn't like the fact that I had something to complain about and she didn't even address the fact that she opens her door anytime that someone comes to visit us when we aren't home and manages to complain about our dog. I told her that she wouldn't appreciate it if every time someone came to her house that I complained about her piece of junk car that hasn't run in 3 years and is never going to run. She didn't seem to like it and said that we just want the parking space. That has nothing to do with it. I'm waiting for it to go rolling back into our car. And who will pay for that when that happens? Certainly not her.
I'm just tired of her bullshit and let her have it. Finally.

Catching Up
Been a long time since I posted anything - couple more months and it will be a year. Last time I wrote, I had just started a new position in the payroll department. I'm still loving that and enjoying my co-workers. One co-worker just found out that her sister that has been fighting cancer for many years is at the end of her fight. She is very young - only 36 - and has two young children. Its very sad and I feel so awful for my co-worker. I can't imagine what she must be going through. I can only offer my support and help with whatever I can.
My poor kitty Elsa - my namesake for this blog - passed away two weeks ago. She had been losing weight for at least 6 months and when we took her back to the vet, the x-rays showed a tumor in her lung. We decided not to put her through more tests - we figured her age around 17 or so. I was lucky enough to have her in my life for 11 years. She was the best cat that anyone could have hoped for and I miss her terribly. If you have never had a pet, you are missing the best thing that could happen to you. Zinger - the crazy one and Shaleigh, our barking dog feel the loss as well. Maybe someday I'll get another kitty - as a playmate for Zinger. The dog only plays for so long before she wants to go lay down.
An now a rant about my neighbor - this is the woman that complains to our landlords that she barks all the time. Well, she doesn't bark all the time. Only when she hears noise outside - which with the ins and outs of neighbor - is a lot. That woman goes in and out of her house constantly. We have done everything we can to limit the amount of stimulation that Shaleigh hears and sees during the day. She can't see anything out the front windows or the front door and we keep the stereo on and also a radio in the bedroom where she spends most of her day. I've been able to get into the house and shut the door before she realizes that someone is there, so I know that she isn't barking all day. Our neighbor has taken to talking to our visitors that stop by when we aren't home to complain about our dog. She chose the wrong person to do that too this time - my best friend - who we got the dog from - stopped by to pick up Shaleigh for a babysitting weekend and stupid neighbor opened the door to complain. Well, she got an earful. My best friend gave it to her and hopefully, that will shut her up. I will be complaining to our landlord about her - I've had enough. She's also getting a nasty letter in her mailbox - to stop her from sending us little notes in our door - which only sets off the dog I'm sure. How would she like it if I opened my door every time someone stopped by and asked them about her not having a job for almost two years. She probably wouldn't like that very much. She is a pain in the butt - and more!
