Have I mentioned lately how friendly the people in my neighborhood are? I swear, even though we live in a big city, it’s almost like we live in a one street small town – at least in our immediate area.
I know .. most Torontonians probably wouldn’t say that as it’s not known as being the friendliest city, but it’s true for my area.
The neighbor behind us has invited us to his son’s wedding – or rather, I suppose it’s his son himself that invited us to his wedding. It’s the weekend after next. We were invited to the eldest son’s wedding when he got married two or so years ago but we couldn’t make it for some reason, so we’re looking forward to attending this wedding.
I don’t think I’ve been to a Greek wedding before.
Actually I ran into my neighbors daughter when I was outside a little while ago and she told me she’s in the wedding party. She was just coming back from having her bridesmaid dress fitted. She showed me some pictures and the dresses look a little like prom dresses.
Anyway … everyone in my neighborhood is just nice. Some drop off food – tasty desserts when they’ve been baking, others do favors for us like mowing our front lawn or shoveling our walkway when they’re out doing their own chores. Of course we return the favors.
It’s just a great place to live. Our house could be a bit bigger and I’d love it if we were in a detached house rather than a semi-detached as I can hear my nearest neighbors at times … but hey – most of the things about living here are good.
Do you like your neighborhood and or your neighbors?
I know only 2 kinds of neighbors: the ones that don’t care and don’t even say “hi”, and the ones that always try to find details of your private life and gossip. So, you are lucky indeed!
Yeah..our neighbors are OK…our HOA is pretty tough though. Some of these ladies need hobbies.
I don’t live in that kind of neighborhood. I live next to a busy street and you rarely see neighbors out. You’re so fortunate to live in such a nice area.
Wow, lucky you, I just moved to a new area and mine don’t even notice anyone else around them 🙁 and I’m used to having nice neighbours like you. I kind of miss then actually.
