We have a very nice neighborhood. It's all very quiet and the neighbors really keep to themselves.
If they're out, you wave, say "hi", etc. We've lived here for almost 7 years.
Now, there is this one lady who lives 4 doors down who must really, really dislike us!!
She has a riding mower that she uses to cut grass, etc. In the winter time she puts her snow plow attachment on and does sidewalks.
Well last winter I was in my bedroom looking out the window at all the snow one day and she was out doing her sidewalk, then proceed onto the next house, and the next, and the next... then she came to our house... she drove her mower out into the street, drove past our house and then back onto the sidewalk and mowed the next sidewalk.
Now, I know that she does mow grass for extra money, so I'm sure she plows for extra $$ too. But I know for a fact that the two houses on either side of us and the next one over do NOT pay her or ask for her to plow the snow.
So, there she was again yesterday... mowing all the sidewalks on both sides of the street and she drove into the street to go past our house again.
I don't know what I did to make her so upset?? I know when they first moved here, about 2/3 years ago I saw here in a store and called her by the wrong name, Tammy not Tina, but have apologized for it. I have walked down to their house to tell her about cool programs that her kids might enjoy during the summer.
I am not upset about this.. I actually think it's kinda funny all the trouble she goes through to avoid our house.
what do you all think??

I can see someone maybe doing the houses directly beside them and NOT wanting to do everyone elses ... but to go out of her way when it probably takes her longer to go onto the street to bypass your house than to just continue on the sidewalk??? 
), but he would probably think that I was trying to poison him. 
Sorry. Nothing like jumping out of the frying pan (one neighbour) and into the frying pan (thousands of potential enemies now). 
LOL.
