I hate my mom's neighbor.
My mom is having the block foundation of her house (been in it since 1972) repaired so she can prepare to downsize to something with little to no maintenance. There is about 3 feet between that side of her house and the neighbor's driveway, so she had to get signed approval for the company doing the work to be on the driveway for about a week.
Begrudgingly, the horrid wretch signed, after my mom promised to repair/replace anything damaged during the repair (at her expense). The driveway was in pretty bad shape, so we got tons of "before" pictures. Well, during the repair, the company broke off the corner of one square of the driveway (outside work mostly wrapping up today), so they told mom they would jackhammer that half section out and pour new at the beginning of next week. Mom then said she would kick the extra $800 to just replace that whole section.
Workers go to tell the neighbor what they are doing....and she calls the police. She won't even talk to the workers. Wants the front half of the drive replaced (the part with grass visible growing through all the cracks BEFORE any work even started), blah blah blah.
Mom was even going to SLB her with a gift card as thanks for giving up use of her driveway the week prior to this because she had been uncharacteristcally sane during this process. Well, that ain't gonna happen now.
This is the same gem who called the police on:
- a tree service working for the neighbor whose lot runs across the back for breaking her chain link fence (they didn't, I was working in the yard the whole time)
- another neighbor's visiting kids, whose car broke down in front of her driveway as they were leaving (they knocked on her door to tell her they broke down and had already called a tow truck)
There's probably more that I don't even know about. I'm pissed off that my mom did everything right and now has to worry about this #### because of her lowlife neighbor, who got the down payment on the house covered by a grant and apparently pays for it all with child support from her two baby daddies (who are probably paying a premium to disentangle themselves from her psycho ###).
TLDR; My mom's neighbor is a wretched hosebeast and I should probably drink some bourbon to calm down.
