I Spy on My Neighbors…

I try really hard not to be one of those nosey neighbors that everyone hates.  However, when your blinds and windows are open, your eyes can see, and your ears can hear… you notice things. All sorts of things…

Reluctantly, I retreated into the house.  [How to Recognize Domestic Violence Signs]

You know what they would think if they saw me standing there “Oh my Gosh!  Is she standing there again?  Such a nosey neighbor!”   Okay, so maybe not.  But that is what I feel like they would be thinking.

What should I do to not be a nosey neighbor? (Even an accidental one?) I don’t want to close my blinds, I don’t want to close my windows.  I certainly can’t run around with ear plugs and blinders on.  I’ve decided I’ll just…
