Help - Neighbor poisoned our organic garden :(
Comments (101)I feel for you! I have a very similar situation. My neighbor hates my trees, shrubs, everything and walks on my side of her fence and has been spraying round-up for years. All grass, groundcover is dead 5 feet on the property line on my side. My 5-yr. old new arborvitae tree looks worse than the day planted and has not grown an inch. My tall Leland cypress trees are brown on the bottom halves and look poorly, not to mention she stubbed many of them to the trunk, took out limbs up to 8 ft above the ground, the trees look awful! Her goal is to kill them-after 10 years of growth. I know that I am venting. So what to do with crazy? At first I though she was just mean. I do believe she poisoned my cat 8 months ago, since she had threatened me the month before. The law is very unhelpful. Laws exist, but one practically has to catch enough photos and film footage to prove anything! Or eyewitnesses that are willing to testify. The person can go to court and lie, which is what the neighbor does all the time. A preponderance of evidence is what the policeman told me. So I have been installing surveillance cameras around my home and plans for one or two to shoot down the fencerow. After $200 and trial and error, please get a complete system, donât try to piece mill these things together unless you are technically, electronic savvy. After working with wired cameras for a while which now requires a transmitter and receiver if you want camera placed a great distance from your house, I would advise IP cameras if you have a reliable router. The summary is that neither system is foolproof, so easiest may be the IP. I am ditching my wired ones soon and buying IP, more money. I just hope to catch her and sue, or stop vandalism-which may require continual vigilance on my part. Also get a reputable tree specialist to take a look at your plants, one that wins cases in court. The value placed on plants and trees a tree is not always just the monetary purchase value, the staff told me trees can value at 1000 or more. Besides, it is against US law and may local ordinances to poison (put adverse chemicals on) someoneâs land against their permission. I donât know the penalties for this. Regarding fencing, great idea, but it canât stop the herbicide run-off. Bad Neighbor has built a damn along her fencerow; water does not flow downhill but back on me and none on her. Again against the law for person to damn up the natural flow of water and cause harmful consequences on anotherâs land. Fence may stop direct application on trees and bushes, but my neighbor is so crazy that I figure she will sneak on my side of the fence to do her dirty deeds. The situation I face is complex and fraught with impediments, all maniacally crafted to an almost impossible web. I too have thought about moving, which is exactly what my neighbor wants, control of my land. I have never been so hopeful for someone to die sooner than later....See MoreNursery on a budget
Comments (131)Congratulations! I endorse an IKEA crib. We had a pricey crib for ds, purchased by my parents. Then the safety standards changed (no more drop sides) and I couldn't bring myself to re-use his crib knowing there had been safety issues. So we bought an IKEA crib. Best decision ever. Inexpensive, worked perfectly. We also bought one of the pricier IKEA mattresses (still cheap compared to others) and felt like it was a very good choice as well. I actually also bought some IKEA crib sheets as back ups and they were nicer than I expected. I also endorse a dresser instead of a changing table. My oldest was over a year when we adopted him and I never once changed him anywhere but the floor or ground--he was way too wiggly and strong. Then we adopted dd as a newborn, but she rolled over at 4 weeks 4 days. So again, super wiggly baby that I always changed on the floor or ground. Definitely anchor furniture. You never know what they will do. It's worth a little time and money for the extra safety. I had a neighbor who traded babysitting with me and her first was very calm, walked late, followed rules, etc. WHen she was pregnant with her second, she said, if my next one is like your dd I'm going to have to actually baby proof, aren't I? I laughed and said YES! Not about the nursery, but my advice on baby gear is to put some thought and money into carriers and strollers. I had a freehand mei tai, a pikkolo carrier and an ergo with dd. They all got a ton of use and made my life so much better. And I had a series of high quality strollers, which again got a ton of use and made my life so much better. The Bob stroller we had with ds got over 10,000 miles of use as I walked miles with it daily. Worth every penny! For baby gear advice in general, the forums at the baby bargains book website were invaluable to me....See MoreRunning jokes in the family
Comments (48)My ex used to say, " You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose." When my daughter was potty training we were at a restaurant with my mom. DD was in diapers because I hadn't wanted to deal with the outing. My (now) ex took her to the bathroom. When they came back to the table, DD excitedly told me "I'm going the mando [going commando; i.e. no underwear]!" as she lifted up her skirt to show me. I see what's coming almost in time to catch her skirt before it's all the way up. Ever since, we use "going the mando" for going commando....See MoreChanging Tastes in Entertainment
Comments (48)<Individuals may become sensitive to high pitched sounds as they age> I guess this must be the reason that I cannot stand to listen to screaming children, but then I've never liked high-pitched sounds or voices. At this stage in my life, I especially hate the sound of any kind of screaming. Sometimes I will watch snippets of The Donna Reed Show or Leave It To Beaver in the morning - during commercials of CBS This Morning, or while waiting for Perry Mason to come on, and I find the 1950s family shows to be a bit irritating - partly because of the rigid stereotypes and partly because they are way too conservative. Wally and Beaver were never allowed to express themselves fully, and when they did, they were reprimanded for it - no individuality was allowed. And Donna Reed was too much of a stereotypical housewife, although perhaps less so than June Cleaver. Some of my tastes in entertainment have changed, and some have not. I still like a lot of music that I liked when I was a teenager, but I also like music from when I was in my 40s. There's not a lot of 21st Century music that I like, but there is still some. I have not bought new music as often as I did before the turn of the millennium, however, as it has not had time to grow on me. There is some that I like - just not quite as much as previously. One of my favorite periods was when I was in my 30s, and one of the worst was when I was in my 20s. Recently we've been watching reruns of Schitt's Creek, which I love, but somehow I missed it when it was first on. Maybe because it was on Netflix, which we do not subscribe to and do not need, since we have more to watch than we have time to watch. We have Samsung TVs in our living rooms, and we get a lot of Samsung streaming channels, including the Wipeout Channel, which is one of our favorites. We watch a fair amount on DABL as well. In addition to TV reality shows being scripted, Hollywood movies follow strict guidelines as well. I took a screenwriting class in Hollywood around 1993, and I was taught that certain things were supposed to happen on page 12, for example. Screenplays can almost write themselves, if you have the right software. I have Finaldraft, but I've never completed an entire screenplay😵 I'm fairly good at pitching ideas, however....See Morewildchild2x2
