for neighbors anymore. Having a second cup of coffee on the front porch this morning, Sunday, and around 9am. the retired guy down the street starts his
back pack. Freekin guy has no grass, just a driveway and a patio. Blows,who knows what, for 2 hrs. Then around noon ,the guy across the street
who never cuts his lawn, gets out his weed wacker and proceeds to cut it than uses a backpack to blow it into piles. What happened to
rakes.
I just started the grill for supper, and the girl on the other street proceeds to blow her 20x20 driveway off with the large 8hp little
wonder blower that has needed a spark plug for the last 5 years. The thing starts,spits, sputters, stalls, she starts it again. She repeats it until
finally 1/2 hr later it's done. How about a broom lady. We named her, "stop and start".
We used to have an unwritten neighborhood code, that nobody cut their lawn til after 10am on Saturdays, and rarely if ever on Sunday.
Neighbors would stop by and talk, the kids would all play, and family members would come by to visit and have a meal. That's what
weekends were for. People just had consideration for others as maybe they wanted to sleep in, have a quiet morning, or have a meal in peace.
No more, it's i'm gonna do what i want to do when i want to do it. No consideration.
.
no consideration what so ever
.. and were all rushin around waaaay too fast.. I'm guilty too.. just got done cuttin my lawn, todays world ya gotta do chores when ya can cram them in, I guess... no so called "normal" work sched for me.. neighbors don't seem ta mind tho..... most all of them are out, except for 3 doors down, they got all their Harley buds over and have Led Zep crankin at about 30 on the stereo, coupla Harleys get started every 10 minutes and revved up for about 5 minutes, and there seems to be inordanite amounts of beer being drunk there too... bet they didn't even hear the lawnmower or weed whacker, good thing is they are all old men, and will crap out in an hour or so
