However.....there is a sign of spring at our house that is unwelcome. I won't post a pic, as it is too gross. We know it's spring when our neighbor starts living on his porch. My kitchen looks right out on it because it is raised up. He is semi-retired and lives on this porch. I have no problem with that, except for the fact that he LOVES to come out shirtless in the mornings and sun himself. We call him the "Shirtless Wonder". At night, he and his wife, sit on the porch before their dinner and savor expensive wines. There was a Saturday Night Live skit with Rachel Dratch and Will Ferrell called "The Lovers", based on an older, intellectual couple. That is what we call them. It's quite annoying when we are rushing around crazy-like with our kids. On the other side of our house, there is an older couple that we really like. However, they have a hot tub that they like to enjoy in the morning. I stare in jealousy as I rush around trying to get the kids out the door.
There are million kids in our neighborhood...why do I live next to two houses of people that can slow down and relax all day?

It would be so much more bearable if the neighbor sunbathers and hottubbers were bikini clad college coeds.

Wow - you have completely changed my opinion of Draper!
Your kids must be too well-behaved. Give them some supersoakers and kazoos and I bet the neighbors start moving indoors.
Ewww! My neighbor across the street (a stay-at-home-dad) spends all day everyday outside in the front yard in the summer. He wears nothing but a pair of skin-tight itty-bitty red shorts everyday. I know they ain't gettin washed at night. It is so foul.
It is pretty funny that you live between the two old couples. I'm off to watch the clip on SNL.
I am sooooooooooo sorry! Why is it that those who really should cover up rarely do. Thanks for sparing our eyes....I think that my imagination has done enough damage.
I'm with Bill, college kids would be funner!! But someday you too will be that retired couple...kind of...and you will miss the years of running around after your kids. I say look on in pity (I know, it's hard) but they are alone....no little sweeties to keep them young!!
