Green spaces (as in empty lots) and woods are precious to most of us, and 15 is a lot of houses and people… However, as you said, you may end up with some wonderful friends, so there may be a silver lining to all of this. What a fabulous way to work through some of your feelings.Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759118519547222862.post-29298318437355329122023-03-21T14:27:28.167-04:002023-03-21T14:27:28.167-04:00I hope that you find you gain some really lovely n...I hope that you find you gain some really lovely new neighbors. But I can completely understand not loving having a new neighborhood and houses going in so close.

We have a house going up in our neighborhood…a dilapidated cottage was taken down and foundation has been poured. It will be a pre-fab so our fingers are crossed that this will be less disruptive, but I have never seen one go up; we will find out!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11621591443896350515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759118519547222862.post-88812289251152628882023-03-19T14:16:17.138-04:002023-03-19T14:16:17.138-04:00There is always a downside to 'growth' . ...There is always a downside to 'growth' . My son is facing the very same situation-they were told it was a green area and never would develop. 3 years later and they are faced with construction noise and debris and a whole neighborhood where they looked out on woods.

That's a creative way to deal with the fear of the unknown. I can relate...while it isn't a new house next door, we'll have different neighbors probably within a few months. My fears mostly involve the level of noise. It's a quiet place to live, currently.Paulettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181665241824945247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759118519547222862.post-32883580809391954292023-03-19T09:03:52.565-04:002023-03-19T09:03:52.565-04:00You do have to appreciate DS1's sense of humor...You do have to appreciate DS1's sense of humor!

Though I'm sorry for what your "fears" entail (I would feel as you do, and thoroughly miss the privacy and woods nearby), including having to live with a port-a-potty (Johnny-on-the-spot), I admire your hopefulness about the situation. Indeed, maybe a quilter will move into a nearby home. Be sure to date your piece so sometime in the future, when all is settled in your neighborhood, and you've made many new friends, you can look back and wonder why you were even concerned.

Then they opened the street up the hill (where we used to go tobogganing with the kids) and houses popped up like mushrooms. Now I feel like I'm living in the middle of the village instead of in the country. I hope your neighbour is nice. Lovely neighbourhood on the mini. Will it hang on the wall of fame? or will it become a mug rug for big cookies? Lol. ;^)Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772079099766225814noreply@blogger.com
