It’s me again! Can you believe it’s already been eight months since we became neighbors? I wish we had the chance to get to know each other better, but it seems like I’ve only caught you when you’ve been out. So, I thought I’d reach out again through this note. I just wanted to share a few amusing stories (and once again, invite you for a drink or some cake—there’s always cake at my place!).
Blueberry Muffin Mishap
First off, I was really upset to learn that you didn’t get to enjoy the blueberry muffins I left on your doorstep. I remember your puzzled look when I called out from my car, hoping you’d liked the treat. Turns out, my kids had a different plan! They admitted to sneaking over and gobbling up the muffins throughout the day while I assumed they were playing outside. I’m sorry you only ended up with one half-eaten muffin! I promise to bake another batch and deliver them myself this weekend.
Dog Drama
It seems like our paths only cross during chaotic moments! Just last week, my dog decided to dig under the fence and caused quite a scene with your poor cat. I rushed over as soon as I heard the commotion—who knew cats could make such loud noises? I immediately tried to pull my dog away. I truly apologize for that incident; it was unexpected for both of us!
Awkward Encounters
And then there was that embarrassing moment when you saw me in an unfortunate state of undress. Let’s just say my dog got into the trash and paid the price, leading to a very messy morning for both of us. I was caught off-guard and, well, let’s just say my towel didn’t stay put! I hope you found it as funny as I did after the shock wore off. Thank you for quickly getting your kids inside during that moment!
A Scary Surprise
I also want to apologize for scaring your son the other day. My kids found my secret hideaway in the half-finished house next door, where I’ve set up a little retreat with a chair and some chocolate (which they also discovered). I was so engrossed in my magazine that I didn’t hear you and your friends approaching, which is why I shouted “I have a gun!” when your son and a friend walked in. I feel terrible for frightening him, and I hope he’ll forgive me. I really didn’t mean to cause any distress!
Drinks and Mocktails
My husband thought I might have given the wrong impression in my last letter about our alcohol collection. If you don’t drink, that’s totally fine! I can whip up a delightful mocktail or just serve lemonade or water—whatever you prefer.
Let’s Connect!
I genuinely hope we can connect soon; it would be wonderful to have you over for a BBQ or a fun game night! I promise to keep my dog away, and my kids are learning to be more mindful of their volume. The other day, my son was just dramatically expressing his “dying” status because he forgot his iPad—it’s always something with kids!
Looking forward to hearing from you! Feel free to drop by anytime, and if I’m not around, you might find me in the house next door!
Warm regards,
Your Neighbor
