What do you dislike about your neighborhood, city, state?

It isn't close to anywhere! I have to drive 30 minutes to get to an interstate to go anywhere.

Dislike being able to nearly walk from one end to the other w/o breaking a sweat. Live kitty corner from the courthouse. Which is one of the few buildings open on Main street.

Also live more than an hour's distance from an interstate.

Houston traffic!!!!! Its horrendous.

Dislike seeing empty store fronts or abandoned houses that nothing gets done about.

Actually the interstate is an hour, the outer belt is 30 minutes

The inflated size of government. Crooked politicians and crazy high taxation.

Oh until I just saw your location I was assuming you lived in DC........

Whatever is going on upstairs...it sounds like I should call the police.

Martina · 12-09-2017, 01:04 PM

The HOA won't let us put up fences. So if you want a dog, you gotta walk it.

RockOn · 12-09-2017, 05:27 PM

Couple other things I neglected to mention ...

Well water

co-op electricity

I put a heatlamp in the well house late yesterday preparing for snow and mid-20s temps. It is fine.

My electricity went out about an hour ago. I looked at the map of outages and there is a huge blob. I need to pick up a generator. It will be in the 20s again tonight. Not worried about freezing, the dogs and I will stay plenty warm doing the huddle. But Kevin snores so loud, I cannot sleep without the fan on high. He is doing it now. I love that pooch so much but he is working my last nerve. I bought those little nostril lifters you put on your snorers' nose. It did not work on my sweet Kevie. Must check the roads first because I may have to make a long drive to Walmart ... stay there a few hours.

I want to be a whiner! I want my city electricity and water back. This out here in the woods in the middle of nowhere doesn't meet my requirements. And there is nothing short of moving (out of the question) which will correct this situation.

Our original "by pass" is getting an "outer belt" and it will be a toll road. Really pissed about this!

Tuff Stuff · 12-31-2017, 08:39 AM

We live in the sticks..the town has a population around 400 people.By 7pm everything is shut down except for the one local bar..which is usually full with ranchers,farmers,loggers.

Rumors and gossip run rampant here.

CherylNYC · 12-31-2017, 01:34 PM

It's COLD!

EnchantedNightDweller · 12-31-2017, 02:31 PM

All too familiar sounds of domestic violence echoing through the walls. A lot of people and their children live through hell over the holidays. Yesterday they were fighting about money.

Deborah* · 12-31-2017, 04:38 PM

That too many people are moving to my city. It really makes me unhappy.
