My neighbor
This is the letter/note I gave my neighbor after I got home last night and took the dogs out the backyard and found a beer can on my lawn. Mind you, I live in a nice neighborhood in West Omaha. I work hard to be able to afford my home and this young gal that lives next to me appears that her dad pays for everything for her to live there, so she does not take care of the property. I have talked to her about the cigarette butts before. And I still have that shit on my yard. I tried talking to her, by ringing on her door bell and knocking (read banging) on her door. But she ignored me. I knew she was home. So I decided to be diplomatic about it... but as much as an asshole as I could.
Dear Jamie,
I have a HUGE favor to ask you. Please keep all your trash (ie cigarette butts, beer cans, fast food containers) inside your home.
They blow away and end up in my yard. I especially notice this on Thursdays, after they mow the lawn and the cigarette butts are shredded all over the grass. It is really hard to pick up and I truly don't think I should be picking up after you and your multiple visitors.
It is a common courtesy and I hope it is not too much to ask for, especially since I have mentioned this to you before. And I still continue to see all of that.
Please be considerate and keep your trash inside your home.
If you have any questions, shall there be any, let me know.
Your neighbor,
George

Being civil is always good. I always try to be, but you'd be surprised how some people are turned off by being civil, misunderstand it and immediately get defensive. Hopefully he won't be an asshole and throw even more garbage over there. Then you're going to have to throw your dog shit on his doorstep
I have already thought about the dog shit "casually" blowing into her yard...
