Over Friendly Neighbours

A couple of weeks ago, we had some new neighbours move in behind us. I was happy, since they have a little boy roughly the same age as my youngest... I thought "great he'll have a little friend to play with!"

Well, lol, they are great people, we all like them, but man oh man can they gab! More so the hubby than his wife. It never fails, I'll be outside for 2 seconds and I hear "hey Lara, how's it going?" And they start to head over to the fence. So I play nice, walk over, talk a bit, but I can never get away lol! I jokingly told hubby while doing my best possible Al Pacino impression "just when I think I'm out, they pull me back in!"

So now my neighbours have me hiding in my house! I'm constantly, peeking out the window to see if they are outside, and if they are I wait till they go back inside before I venture out into my backyard. It's terrible, but short of telling them to "fuck off" I don't know what else to do... nothing has worked so far! And they really are nice people, our kids all get along, so you don't want to stir the pot, if you know what I mean! I'll even have the phone in my hand and it rings, and I say "I gotta take this call!" And he'll say "no worries Lara, I'll be here when you're done!" Needless to say, I think it's going to be one heck of a long summer!!!
