The New Neighbor

Ok so I don't like it when I am judged from the start when entering a new situation, I understand people have struggles we all do we have been there done that. I know it is scary when you move to a new place and are starting over. I know kids can be difficult and hard to handle. However even with all this in mind nothing has prepared me for my new neighbor. She is a nightmare! Instead of being home during the day getting her moving done she waits until dark and then BOOM! the noise begins. 3 nights in a row I haven't been able to really sleep because her and her kids are up until 12:30, 1:00 in the morning! I tried to talk to her today and OMG! you can not speak to this woman!!!! She cries, she interrupts, she has excuses, she is a piece of work. Then she tells me she can't handle her kids, they don't know what the word No means and that she just got them back and that she is trying to use the skills she learned in the parenting classes she took while at the battered women's shelter. Blah, Blah, Blah. I am seriously going to loose my mind. My kids are tired, now that spring break is over I am hoping to see an improvement, even though my kids are buttheads at home they are good students and need their sleep. I did find out when quiet hours are so tonight I am done talking to her if she and the kids are being overly loud I will call the Police and tomorrow I am calling the landlord. I may have a piece of crap apartment and it may be small and expensive but I am stuck here and I have been for 3 years and I am not going to let the crack addict rule over me. I was lucky enough to have 2 sets of great neighbors and lots of time just to myself. I know I need to share and I understand this is a duplex but I was still here first and I have established ground. She is in for a rude awaking with me because I will not will not put up with her crap!
