The neighbors are suddenly gone.

I just got used to my neighbors--the woman a dental hygienist with beautiful teeth, her new husband a morose and silent man who never came outside except to shoot arrows into a target, and Dillon, a three-year-old tough boy who could already drive a child-sized motorized Jeep around the yard--yes: I got used to them, and even got Dillon to

It sounds like you blinked and missed the move.
They must not have had a lot in the house if they got it all out during your jaunt to get calendars!

And if it's any comfort, Jackie, I would have been fretting about those boxes on the porch, too.

My New Year's Resolutions--and I have many--include "Do not obsess."

I wonder where they moved? And why. But I am letting it all go.

Om.

I wouldn't like musty, webby boxes for my belongings, I tell ya.

I wish your old neighbors the best. Wonder who'll live there next?

I hope a little old lady who waters her flowers and sweeps her porch!

Somebody JUST LIKE ME.

Bitter experience tells me this will not be the case.

Here's to great new neighbours!

Thank you! It is a roll of the dice...I expect pit bulls and old cars in the driveway...

A delightful story!

[jackiejj]

I will never know what happened to them now!

I take it personally when neighbors move! Don't leave me! (Except for the pharmacist's wife who always wanted to gossip about the other neighbors and thought she was a superior being. I planted toilet tanks in our corner garden facing her home in part to irritate her, and when I went in to wash my hands, I told my family that would clear her out. Was I surprised and delighted when she put a "for sale" sign in her yard a week later!)
