A.) I’m so glad she’s OK.

B.) Your neighborhood does sound amazing.

C.) I grew up in a neighborhood just like that. We couldn’t get away with anything–some neighbor would always call our parents. Great for parenting, bad for teenagers.

D.) Joe did not grow up in such a place and he got away with everything.

E.) I once explained that your neighbors would narc on you, that everyone knew everyone else, that everyone was watching out, and he couldn’t quite get over it.

My neighborhood is like that – you can’t lose a shoe without everyone knowing within a few minutes – offering to help, posting flyers and bringing over casserole. Lost shoe casserole. Whatever, you know what I mean.

Of course, like you said, it means that EVERYONE knows your foibles, but I think it’s a very good trade-off.

I’m so glad Kiki was o.k.

Idyllic indeed. And then look at the picture of your house. You ARE a fairy tale, Sarah. (people can be fairy tales)
