OT - I AM PISSED!!! (foul language warning & rather long)
Well, the city doesn't own any of the yard, only the curb. We're borderline rural... And she's on a cul-de-sac, so her yard is a very odd shape - our western lot line is the same as hers, but the east end of her yard is nearly 40 yards beyond our east lot line.
Argh... Ya know, there are a lot of wicked, wicked people on here! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Okay, I also like the lawn ornament suggestion. May I suggest this for your lawn ornament?
I'm sure Travis will need to make a science experiment at some point.

Hey Darla,
I have read all the suggestions... and came up with my own.... instead of doggie do do.... how about cat? I have one that could donate..... and I know of someone with two that could donate... and I am sure we could find more on this board...... that way.... how can it be traced to you???? I assume you don't have a cat? and you could do this double.....leave a bag... but also evenly distribute it across her yard.... then she has to STEP in it when she mows the lawn...... that would be entertaining to watch from your back yard.......
just a suggestion.

Hello...3 cats here - one of which is really stinky!
Darla,
Yes, revenge is sweet, but then where does it stop? I did laughed at the suggestions, however. I think the thing that would be sweetest would be something that she couldn't retaliate against - the lawn ornaments. It is your lawn, you can do with it what you want....she doesn't HAVE to look at them (but you will, unfortunately so, if they are REALLY tacky).
I could feel your anger, and I hope that you have been able to calm down some now...that kind of stress isn't good for you either.
I hope you get things straightened out, if now with her, atleast for your kids.

Just two problems with your suggestion, Diane... Yes, we do have a cat (indoor kitty), and if we fling it in HER yard, it'd get SPRAYED back into ours when she mows!
And Laurie, like I've replied a few times already today, I just don't have it in me to retaliate. I believe Karma will take care of that for me.
Besides - the BEST revenge is living life well! I'll just show her that once my anger dissipates, she and her sorry "rules" have very little effect on our life!!!
