I live in a small town -- There are a group of 5 neighbors that are elderly -- Please God never let me be like this when I get older -- I work, have a career, do my best to think positive about people and embrace the day....Had one birthday party and yes we did get a bit noisy but it was 4 o'lock in the AFTERNOON -- lol -- evidently too close to her bed time -- I wish I would have done a survey for age stats before I bought into this place -- it's a darling condo floorplan though -- great location too. And I actually do have some privacy on my deck. however the HOA president and officers [best friends] are the most negative women -- I'm sure it's coming from somewhere in their past but I have to psyche myself to smile and say goodmorning -- I know if I mirror their obnoxious bossy behavior as they think they own this building -- it will just be what they want -- I'm hoping by killing them w/ kindness it will be more of an aggravant -- but boy do I want to get even for some of their lies and crappiness. I'm over having my feelings hurt. Anyway, anybody else have similar people problem> thanks in advance...
