No Looking Back

Today has been a somber day.  It started with the next door dog barking 1:00am to 1:30am and again at 5am and 6am.  We are having THE talk today.  But I am tired of bitching about that.

We saw the demolition of the hard work we did in the back yard.  A troop of what felt like a dozen people (less than that, but it felt like a small army) came over to buy our landscaping pavers.  And gazebo.  And some other stuff.  Within two hours.  It just reminded us of how we really don't have many friends here.  A few great ones, but not a small army.  I wanted this to happen, since we paid for this stuff and it's ours, we should recoup a tiny fraction of what we paid for this stuff.  It's just sad to see what took Todd (with a tiny bit of help from me) years to build.

Hmmph.

Yup. Very tough to see a lot of that hard work gone in nothing-flat. I am glad though that we were able to sell some of it instead of leaving it. I remember before when we were actually in foreclosure being VERY upset that it was just going to be left. At least this way we got some of it back. And after 4 years, now the neighbors decided to buy a bark collar!
