Neighborhood Update!

So I came home on Thursday to find a note from the Postman saying I had 2 certified letters that could not be delivered. I could not think of why I would be receiving a certified letter but actually the "Occupant" of my condo received them. Since we are a small town I new the postman would leave them even though he is not suppose to. I walk to the mailbox to find a foreclosure notice for around 20 of the units in my building including mine. Yes ~ I know I should own something and this sort of thing would not happen. Anyway, if you have roughly 3.8 million dollars you can be the proud owner of 20 one and two bedroom condos.

I called Jamie at the property management company who said that nothing is changing. Right, the bank wants all the money they can get until they go up for auction in March. I think the universe is trying to tell me something since I had to move from my last place and maybe have to move from my current place. I hope it's not trying to tell me something since I have air conditioning and most places do not have air! I don't want to move!

Update on neighbor upstairs ~ When I called about the certified letters I asked about the guy upstairs since he has not been home since he got the letter except to stop and get something. Jamie stated that he decided to move as he did not want to cause any issues. HOW NICE of him! I think I could of handled him but not the kid and wife on the weekends when I am at home during the day. The women who's boyfriend was in the fight in the parking lot moved out this weekend. So it has been REALLY QUITE in the neighorhood!
Have a great week!

Piece and quite at last.....

I had some piece an quite for the last several days. My neighor has not been here since last Sunday. I have been so relaxed this weekend! I caught up on my TV shows on Friday night and Saturday I went to a Christmas Gift Show and had dinner in CDA. Today I have a sore throat so I hope I am not getting what my co-workers have had the last week or so. Below is a photo from the parking lot at work I took Friday and thought it was eye catching to see the moon just behind the mountain.

I have to say there is something to the comfort of a childhood memory.
Why you ask?
Today I have watched a couple of old movies like The Seven Year Itch. I remember watching old movies with my mom when I was younger on a Sunday and having a hamburger patty and fried potatos with onions for dinner! I am not having the meal but it would be nice but instead I am going to make some chili.

911 on Pine Street!

So if the new neighbor drama is not enough then read on ~ I was sitting on my couch the other night watching John and Kate plus 8 and heard alot of noise outside. I just thought it was someone on the porch next door and until I heard the door open so I knew it was not them. So naturally I looked outside and then opened my door. I could not believe what I saw and said "what in the hell?" I saw 2 guys beating each other to a pulp! Yes can you believe it? The new neighbot drama was not enough! This went on for about 5 minutes and I said to the girls next door "I don't think this is going to stop"! I have never (knock on wood) had to call 911 but I can't say that now! I decided it might be best if I called! The operator took my information and then while I was talking to the operator a woman came out to tell the 2 guys to stop (the girl was one guys girlfriend). By this time I could hear the 2 guys stating one had a broke nose the other had a broken tooth, ect.
As I was waiting for Sandpoint police to show up they move to the back of the building. The first of 3 cop cars show up (slow night in Sandpoint) and a young skinny kid and yes I said kid gets out of the car and the first thing that came to my mind was "what is he going to be able to do"! So the next 2 cars pull up and the girls next door tell me that those 2 guys and the girl are from unit 5 since they went to the back of their place to see the action. I had already figured this out already since every Saturday the boyfriend and girlfriend have a fight around 1am out on thier porch and everyone can hear it. So I think they are going to carry off the 2 guys but to my surprise they carry off the girl. An hour late the ordeal was over or was it?
Of course not.......
I am in my room ready for bed and hear a guy on his phone out in back and then hear a woman yell at him letting him know she hated him and then proceeded to slammed the door to their condo. The police had let her go. This was not enough for her and since the entire neighborhood knows the routine by now she came back out to yell at him some more. Since the guy in the end unit in front is in bed by 10pm I know what is going to happen next so I just got in bed and waited for him to yell at them to be quite. To my surprise he not only yelled at them stating "that's enough" but then hit the back wall of his unit so hard I heard it 3 doors down. At that very moment we had silence on Pine Street!

The following day I returned the call of Jamie at Sandpoint Property who manages the property for the condos about the new neighbors above me. I told her about the 911 call. Jamie did not believe me and then told me that the girl was moving so we would not have to listen to them much longer or have to call 911 in the future. Thank goodness!

Update on the neighors upstairs ~ Jamie sent them a letter telling them they needed to fix the noise level! To my surpise she said the hand delivered it to work. The best part is apparently CWC pays for this place so he does not have to drive home in the winter but Jamie told me he told them that he would be going home on the weekends! I only wish!!! The big part is he called me at work! He left a message stating he had some questions and I don't deal with him with what I do so it had to be about the noise. I called him back and left a message but he has not called me back. Stay tune! Hopefully this weekend will be uneventful! I would like to go to Seattle before the weather turns bad! Maybe if the neighbors return I will flee!

New Neighbors ~ Good or Bad you decide!

About a week ago I came home from my Trip to Arizona to find I had new neighbors who moved in up stairs. It seems that there is NO insulation between the 2 floors bad news. One would think that you would hear some walking but definitely not what I am about to say....I now have heard the man upstairs PEE ~ yes you heard me right and blow his nose twice the other morning. So I went to work telling this story and someone said at least it's only a man and not a small child. Well, I came home Friday and sat down on my couch to hear small foot steps RUNNING across the floor not once but back and forth. I could not take it and went upstairs to see a lady and a small child in the living room since they have not put up blinds yet. I knock on the door and tell them that I live downstairs and that there is NO insulation between the floors and I can hear everything. I also asked if they could turn on the fan in the bathrooms when they are in there as I can hear everything thinking if I tell them this it will be a big enough hint and that I can even hear him blow his nose. The lady stated that her and the little girl are only there on the weekends and the man is only there a couple of nights a week as they live in Spokane, Washington but he works at CWC.
OK ~ to be honest the first thing that came to my mind when she said they were only there on the weekends was great I am home all day on the weekends and like to relax with very little noise and this can not be good! Was I right?
Apparently, they can not sell their house but I would think it would be cheaper if he drove home each night or went home on the weekends!!!! If he went home on the weekends I would be happy and not want to shoot myself!
Apparently, my visit was not a big enough hint as to the noise level! Saturday it was cold outside and like each morning for the last week I was woken up at 6am. Ok it's Saturday and I think I might be able to go back to sleep but NO! Little feet running back and forth for hours or dropping of the toys and then running!! I can deal with the adult feet since the steps are wider and sometimes not as loud and Adults will finally sit down but little feet do not! So today comes which is Sunday and again up at 6am and little feet back and forth. Remember it's Sunday and not even 10:30am and they decide to vacuum on the hardwood and I would of thought she was in my house vacuuming! At that point I have lost it and gone outside on my porch in 50 degree weather trying to get a glimpse of piece and quite! Finally, around 10:30am they go to the park as I was outside and heard them leave! Yes I am venting because I have not had a good nights sleep in days! I have to get all of my sleep or I am a bear or what others would say a Bitch! The one thing that sticks out in my mind is when I knocked on the door the woman said of we are going to be really good tenants. Well, I don't think we are on a good roll! The property management company will be hearing from me tomorrow! I will end on the kicker ~ As I stated above the man works at CWC. He works with the wife of someone who works in the same department as I do. I am trying to be nice but when all your hear every 15 minutes for hours is BANG, BANG, BANG of footsteps, dropped toys, and ect.

Oh did I leave out when the girls next door had someone live above them one of the girls heard a small child cry over her room and then in the other room she heard the parents and I will leave the rest to your imagination.
