MY NEIGHBOR FILLED IN MY POND – I SHOWED HIM WHY YOU DON’T CROSS AN OLDER WOMAN.

MY NEIGHBOR FILLED IN MY POND – I SHOWED HIM WHY YOU DON’T CROSS AN OLDER WOMAN.

My neighbor, Brian, never stopped griping about my pond, which sits right near his property. He’d always say it was a nuisance, claiming it attracted bugs, made the ground too wet, and bred frogs that croaked all night, keeping him up.

Well, one day, I got back from visiting my sister in another state and was downright horrified. My beautiful pond was completely filled in. My other neighbor told me a crew came by with orders from some company to drain it and fill it up. It was all paid for. She couldn’t stop them, and I was just devastated.

That pond had had fish in it, and my granddaddy dug it himself! It was always clean, and my grandkids loved swimming in it every summer.

I knew Brian was behind this because he was the only person who hated my pond. It seemed like he thought I would just let it slide because I am old and live alone. Little did he know that I had a few tricks up my sleeve.⬇️
