It's all about the WATER .... Psycho Neighbor... da da dahhhh da...

 Yes, we have NEIGHBOR DRAMA!!

Well.... one, it's our fault she's on medication ... and two, it our fault that her marriage is crumbling.... 
WOW..... I love the fact that we have so much control over HER life! 
Yep... I got out my magic wand and said "BAM you are in need of medication!" and then I got the Psycho Neighbor Remote out and pressed the "divorce" button... yep yep....  See... here it is... 

Sooooooooooooooooo ...  we were messing around with our water last night ... the controls in our cellar, ya know, trying to figure out which one turned on the outside water spigots ...  when it's on, it bum rushes water under our porch cuz it's got a pipe that keeps getting disjointed or whatever.  So Dennis was messing with it all last night, and he got it fixed, then we watered some of our plants, grass, etc ...  I was thinking "YAY" talking about getting a sprinkler to fix our dying grass and let the kids have a little fun...  and then he turned it back off under the house (because who can trust the neighbors), and we came in (before 8 pm) ...  and watched Twilight.  K?  Following so far???  
So this morning, Dennis and I are up playing on the computer .. it's about 11 ...  the psycho neighbor starts to scream and shout and shout and scream and CRYYYYYYY and swear - every other word is F*** this and F*** that - and slam stuff on her patio... (later I found out it was a plastic pail and she smashed it to bits) 

In order for this woman to be reacting this way over the silliest stuff, she has some major issues, and I'm literally scared for the safety of my family at times.
So I'm sorta watching her, and with my patio door shut, and window behind my computer open, I can hear her and her "I AM SO SICK OF THIS S**T" and "I HAVE A SCHEDULE TO KEEP and whatever else...then she yells "I WORK UNTIL 2AM... I GET UP, WANT TO SHOWER AND BRUSH MY TEETH AND I CAN'T!" 
So...... she apparently called *CJ* and *L* last night, because of her leaky hose.  And so *L* came over to fix it...   Same time Dennis was messing with the water to our place... 
So this morning, she is throwing her off the charts psycho melt down, and *L* shows up ... while she's cussing on the phone yet again...  apparently, the water has been off since 8-9 o'clock last night, and so he starts coming over to our place, like it's our fault, looking at the pipes under our deck.  Our water and their water should be two separate things!  So ... he tells Dennis to show him exactly what he was messing with last night, so he did.  None of it effected her place.  Go figure!   However, the pipe did break again under our patio, so we KNOW when that water is on and when it's not!  It was only on for a short period of time yesterday so if it had any effect on their water, they should have known LONG before. 
But there is a faucet on the side of the garage by our entry way that she claims is hers, it's connected to their water...  when Dennis brought that up, *L* went to check it out with Dennis, it had apparently been turned off.  Now, I don't know if *L* did it last night when he was trying to fix their water, I know Dennis didn't have any reason to touch it because he was messing with stuff in the cellar, he says he "might" have turned it off (but really says he doesn't remember going over there ever last night, we already knew that one was working, but we didn't know who's it was...) ... so anyway ... they turn that valve at the side of the garage on, and sure enough, it works... 
So Dennis makes some stupid comment to *L* about maybe one of the kids came out and was messing with it, and I immediately said "The kids were all inside last night when we were," which she HEARD. 
So they tell her to try it, and so she goes in and says it's working...  then she slams the door, then pops it back open and screams SERIOUSLY? at her husband... then slams the door again. Apparently when I wasn't outside Ashley over heard *L* tell her to ask to use our shower, because she was screaming how she was going to have to get a hotel and this was ridicules, and she said "No, they HATE me!" ... well, we don't like her but hate is an awful strong word.

We are genuinely nice people, and easy to get along with - if respect is given to us, respect is given to others...  it's the simple human factor.  You treat us kindly, we will do the same.  We don't deny if we make mistakes, just bring it up and we'll try to fix it if it's in our control.  We go out of our way to help out others, when we can.  

The problem is, she made a SNAP judgment about us before we even moved in!  And to think, we were looking forward to getting to know our neighbors, becoming friendly with them, because we don't know anyone in WA really!  We just made a HUGE move ... why would we be doing crap like she claims.  Fact is, we walk on EGGSHELLS around this woman just to try to keep some peace!
So then, after her shower... she comes back out, bitching on her cell phone once again about us...  and Ashley over hears her talking about how it's our fault she's on medication...
Then my cell rings, it's *CJ* ...  go fucking figure!!
I answered and she says "Did you guys tell her that the kids turned off the water?"  ... and so I had to go through the whole story!  I told her that she basically took what she wanted out of that conversation, and ran with it.  Nothing is ever her fault, she takes no blame in anything...  I told her that Dennis was basically trying to come up with what happened and, I told him that wasn't even a possibility since the kids were inside with us all night, we were watching a movie while Nathan and Kaedyn were going to sleep and Cal came down to join us (he was upstairs playing a game the rest of the time,) and Noah was upstairs too..
So she tells me that she just called her up ... chewing her a new behind ... about how we blamed it on the kids and obviously if we are leaving our children outside unattended at 9pm then we are not good parents and just ripping on us. 
So I went outside, stood right next to Ashley and started YELLING about the phone conversation with *CJ*.... telling her what *CJ* said about how we are bad parents and how it's OUR fault her marriage is falling apart and this and that...  and I'm yelling so if she's by any open window, she can hear, and then I came back in, but pop'd my head out a second later and screamed, in their direction "SEE ... YOU AREN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN PLAY THE SCREAMING OUTSIDE GAME"
Then she was outside bitching about us on the phone again later. 

*CJ* says she completely washes her hands of it....  she's a lunatic and she's tired of the phone calls everyday bitching about this and that.  It told *CJ*, we aren't making complaints because we know she's going to be leaving soon, not soon enough, but soon... and that we're trying to keep peace but every single thing we do is wrong! 
I'm just tired of it!!
