What can we do about this?

Try contacting the department of elder affairs in your area and see if they will send out an ambudsman to act as an intermediary between you and the Nursing Home. The NH will not want complaints about them to reach Dept of Elder Affairs, believe me.

I had nose surgery two days ago for my sinus issues. I take allergy shots every week. I am highly sensetive to cigarette smoke

have you told him this? maybe if you change tactic and ask for his understanding he might be a bit more reasonable. If not, then I agree with Karen - turn the hose on him!

Can you think of some foul stinky spray to put in that area, so he (the smoker) will not be so comfortable? How about having a portable sprinkler going - on a timer and let him get a little wet!

Gosh, I think he needs his block knocked off ...... I am surprised your husband has stayed as cool as he has.....

I think I would rent a big, nasty, loud dog....and stake him right near the smoker........

I sound mean, don't I?

I am so considerate of my neighbors that it infuriates me to see and hear about others who are not....

Keep us posted....

I can see setting Callie loose on him.... she's kill him with jumping. Actually, she's not too sure of most men, so maybe.........


And don't get me started on neighbors! I have one who is stealing my internet and I STILL can't figure out how to fix the free internet connection.

Another lets his dog poop all over my yard and I can't get it through his head that he needs to pick up after his dog EVERY time, not just when he sees me see her poop.

And yet another who has the NICEST orange cat who prefers my yard and front porch. He's turned the front porch into his personal litterbox. Well, my front porch is enclosed, so he's turned the under part into a litterbox. You go into the closed-in part, and it smells llike cat urine, and its not MY cats making hte smell. I tried to get the cat last nice. He was sleeping on the shed's roof. I was seriously contemplating making him go *poof*

you can lock it so nobody can use it apart from you - not sure how though but I am sure someone here will be able to help you with the technical stuff

Is a fence an option?

We have one, but that doesn't stop the neighbor's cat or the other neighbor's dog from pooping on the spots outside the fence.

You can contact me via email or PM and I'll see what I can do about helping you with that.

It is work, but you should consider putting chicken wire fencing under the porch. You can do it behind whatever latticework or posts there are, so it isn't as visible or unattractive from the street, but it will keep the cat from getting in there. It also keeps out skunks, coons and other critters who might decide it's a good hiding place, and keep Cam out of there, once he's old enough to think of it as a hiding place.
