There Is A Flaw In The Neighborhood

May 27th, 2010 · No Comments · lonely and desperate articles

I was very pleased with the home, neighborhood and people when we moved into a new town. Right away three neighbors invited me to share morning coffee with them. Lisa lives across the street. Jen is next door to her. Marcia is the one flaw. She is however, one of the group, and she was there before me.

We all have kids and dogs, but is that enough to establish a friendship? Yes, we walk our dogs together. Our kids do enjoy going to the park and all playing together. It seemed ideal until I started selling products from the herbalifeline.

Things became annoying after that. All my new friends gave me an order for cleaning products. Lisa bought shampoo and conditioner and toothpaste. Marcia ordered lipstick and blush in addition cleaning compounds.

The cleaning products are effective and I know since I use them in my house. But Marcia disagreed on that. She told me they didn’t work as well as what she bought from the store. They didn’t clean the floors as well. They left soap scum in the tub. Even the dishwashing soap was not good enough. After refusing a refund, I began to wish she would drop the subject. She declined but continued to gripe.

OMG, how I wish she would. She continued to gripe until the bottles were empty. Then after apologizing, she bought her old brands. I was not going to see my family starve because of her lack of ordering so that was fine.

Often, after our morning coffee gathering, I feel like putting on my black helmet and riding to some remote spot and screaming a primal scream. One day I mentioned it and OMG, she was going to ride out with me. End of that idea.

Lisa and Jen rolled their eyes when she wasn’t looking. I would have enjoyed riding my schwinn mountain bike to the park with Jen and Lisa. It would have been relaxing to ride for an hour before all the kids got home from school.

I can hardly keep myself under control during coffee time with Marcia. She makes me want to each three Danish pastries. She also brags. Her husband is a prince compared to ours. Her kids are smarter in school. Her dog is a purebred with papers to prove it.

The final consensus in this situation is that I love our new home and most of our neighbors. I consider my own kids and dog to be the best of the bunch. I refrain from bragging about them though. I also do not belittle anyone else’s kids by acting superior.
