My neighbor... the sexual offender

[pomtzu]

Whisk - I know that, but it wasn't my interpretation of what was written. Perhaps I was mistaken.

[Cataholic]

Pom- you weren't mistaken. It was one of those, "oops" moments by Marigold.

I can't imagine having some snitch (though I can guess who it is, LOL) tell me what someone I am supposedly on "ignore" with said. Talk about stirring the pot!

And, strangely enough, I, too, had someone demand I put them on ignore, and they would do the same. Think it was the same person?????

Ditto...think I listened to the demand

Gee, I thought I was the only one who got the same demand to put them on ignore..I wonder who that leaves with permission to post. My response was much the same as Pom's. Thought maybe someone had appointed a new mayor to the forum with such a demand

I hope no one felt offended when they learned they weren't the only one!!

I am not sure if you are refering to me as the snitch seeming I have tried to back up Monica a few times in previous threads, or the person who told you to put them on ignore or something (I don't really know what you are all talking about at the moment to be honest), but I thought I would just make sure I was not being accused of this because I had nothing to do with it.

[Cataholic]

WL, I am accusing you of nothing.

[Catty1]

On a post where the person is on Ignore, there is a "view post" added so you can see the actual post without taking the person off Ignore.

[Catlady711]

off the rabbit track and back to the topic at hand....

I would just be normally cautious as you normally would with strangers, and don't encourage or initiate conversation if you get a 'creepy' feeling around the neighbors.

I live right across the street from a guy that's on one of those sex offender lists. I forget what the actual sentence is but it doesn't really affect me. He's rarely out and about when I am, and when he does happen by his conversations are fairly brief and he's on his way. Heck my hubby even sold a gun to him at one of our garage sales. We've been here almost 12 years. As long as he minds his own business, I'll do the same. There's another one down the road a bit but I've never met him so he's never been a problem or fear either.

If you feel uncomfortable with it, speak to your realator about disclosure about it. If that gets nowhere and you wish to pursue it you might make a consultation appt. with a lawyer to see if it's required by law to disclose that before a home sale.

after reading all the replies I have to sit down now b/c i'm dizzy.

In all truthfulness - I was being facetious...

I'm back from vacation and catching up.

Deep breathes everyone.

I'm not knocking on my neighbors door waving a flyer in his face. Not gonna happen. I am not about to stir s@%$.

When I got to the campground my dad asked me at dinner if I was gonna let the neighbor mow my lawn again. I replied, "About that..." and brought them up to speed.

Seeing as dad has met the guy (albiet briefly), he feels the guy is just trying to be neighborly but sides with me if I don't want the guy coming around anymore. Which I don't. More so because the guy is not insured or bonded to do yardwork and if he hurts himself on my property I could get screwed royally.

Mom suggested I have my cousin (Police Officer) stop by to visit me and see the house. Perhaps seeing a guy in uniform will keep the neighbor at bay.

I stopped by the house twice (once before vacation and today) and there were no veggies to be seen.

I'm normally a skeptic about people I don't know, however in this case it's possible your neighbor is using someone else's garden to plant the veggies in. The only reason I suggest that is one of our few good neighbors wanted to plant some Roma Tomatoes for a few years and couldn't at his place. I offered him a space in our garden. He planted, picked, and tended his own section of the garden so I didn't have to mess with it. You could always ask where his veggies are if you're curious and just see what he says and how he acts about being questioned about it.

Catlady, I know the veggies are from his garden. I can see it in his backyard. He was planting it when my dad and I visited the property prior to buying and I've seen him picking the veggies when I was at the house cleaning.
