Kestrel Ridge Neighborhood Ass. Meeting

First I must go to my happy place and post a photo from our deck this morning. After last nights meeting I really needed a good sunrise to remind me why I moved to this area.

I MUST get this off my chest - a vent!!!

DJ and I attended the Kestrel Ridge Neighborhood Ass. Meeting to see what was up and we were appalled at how many pompous, whiners are in our neighborhood. Shocked because we have made a good number of friends and acquaintances and the people we talked to love the area and other neighbors. We're a very friendly group.

But at the meeting last night many people we did NOT know (and one we are very familiar with ) were showing their colors and throwing a lot of childish tantrums.

It SEEMS, many of the house are not up to their snooty standards (ours included) and the entire meeting was one big bitch session. At one point a neighbor called a house, which is being built with the owners own two hands and all by himself, a DOUBLE WIDE. A friend of hers told people to drive past and look at the Double Wide and then they both cackled!!

How freaking insulting is that!!! I was embarrassed.

I am ashamed at how some of the people attending this meeting treated MLG. They were like children. They sit in their fancy houses thinking others should be like them. They complain that the poles on yard lights have been stained - AGAINST THE ORDINANCE. Or a house is taking too long to build and is too small, or a crack in the sidewalk or somebody has 3 pets or their $34 dues are too steep. A bunch of arrogant BS if you ask me!!

DJ fields phone calls all day with REAL problems, neighborhoods with drive by shootings, crack houses and so forth and these people have the gall to complain that a house is only 1400 square feet - it's RUINING their neighborhood?

Then when MLG asked for volunteers to help them did the whiners raise their hands?? No. All they wanted to do was bitch, not really get involved!

This is a wonderful, beautiful area. The houses, big and small are all kept up and 90% of the people here act like adults and are generous, kind, happy and love it here.

I hope MLG does not think ALL residents are not like the caustic ones!
=============================================

sigh.

I got a call from Anchor Bank yesterday. It seems I won "yet another" contest and one of my photos of Columbus will be in their National Calendar. In 2008 I was Mr. September in the State of Wisconsin calendar (OK a photo, not ME) with the Danville Mill photo (shown last week).

In 2009 I will be Mr. March with the Public Enemy Columbus photo for Anchor Bank.
============================================

Football.

Lets see. I won the 2nd week in a row in one contest. Am 3rd out of 30 in another and I'm 23rd out of 200 in an "Against the Spread" contest AND I won 8 out of 12 ATS in online wagering.

Football was very good to me. . . as it always is.

For anyone that cares on my OTHER blog (the gambling one) I will be all over the Packers again this week. They are 3 point favorites against Detroit.

Some people dislike Thompson but he has REALLY put together a great team. I strongly believe they are STRONG Super Bowl Contenders!
===================
Now I must stop.

I'm like Milo that saw another cat outside and the hair on the back of my next is standing up. Milo and some random cat were screaming at each other through the windows this morning - I bet SOMEONE registered a complaint that we are now housing feral cats.

BTW - Krix does a great job at haircuts!! WELL DONE!! I've had some pretty good hair days lately!

OK - I better stop.

DON'T GET ME STARTED!!!! LOL
