Here, Let Me Help You

I haven't talked about the Yankees that moved in a few years back for a while now.  Let me catch you up on the neighborhood gossip.

Yankee husband brings home a girlfriend.  Not sure why he brought her home, I guess he wanted her to meet his wife.  OMG!

Yankee husband moves out and leaves kids with wife.  He moves a few towns over to live with the girlfriend.

Shortly after that, the wife moves to that town to make it easier for the kids to see each parent.  Or whatever.

Some time passes and the house sits empty.  For sale with no interested buyer.  Yankee husband barely keeps up cutting the grass all Summer.

A moving truck pulls in one day and they load a bunch of stuff into the house.  It's the girlfriend, the Yankee husband, and one of the two kids.  Oh!  Awesome!  Glad you are back in town Yank!

A new Realtor lists the house and rumors travel down the street that he is looking to sell and move before the end of the year.   Goodbye Yankee!  I'll even help you pack up.

Suddenly the FOR SALE sign disappears.  As I'm pulling the cork out of a bottle of wine I'm told the house hasn't sold.  Huh? Please don't tell me that. . . Please.   Please. . . Just leave.

So that's where we're at.

The neighbors are pooling their resources and doing everything we can to sell the house for him.  Even though it's currently not listed.

That's how it is in our neighborhood.  We help each other out.  Always just trying to help.
