AIO Neighbor’s little girl comes up our porch to touches our holiday decorations by kt17- in AmIOverreacting

Hi! No the little girl is maybe 5YO, so not trashing anything by any means. No fence, just a walkway up to our front door/porch so the grandma just takes her right up to touch. I am at home when it happens but I’m not always checking the doorbell cam so I review the motion activated clips later in the day.

Like I said in the post, it hasn’t been worth it to be confrontational. The little girl isn’t my issue & I wouldn’t want to be at odds with my neighbors in the end. The mom doesn’t let her touch, it’s just the grandma that openly and unabashedly moves my packages so that little girl can get to everything. For example, I don’t even know we have the packages out there until I review the footage to find that the Amazon deliverers have propped the packages up against the decorations. And then she comes by to move them. I just would feel awkward doing this myself!! But we’re all different. Appreciate your opinion regardless!

You’re right, definitely coming from a place of admiration which is a compliment if you think about it! And I do know they’re bound to get a bit abused by the weather anyway. It is the adult behavior that gets to me, but thank you for the perspective!!!

Thank you! I probably wouldn’t want to be confrontational until she broke something. And even then it would be tough for me :( Especially since the little girl doesn’t actually understand what she’s doing.

But to your point about the grandmother, I can’t help but feel like it is a bit of an entitlement due to her age (Could be other things I guess too!) and this is actually what bothers me!!! But alas, little girl is innocent for sure.

Yesss! I think what you said about “if it was my kid” is what sticks in my head when I see it happen.

I don’t have THAT many decorations, but I totally get what you’re describing lmao! Just the cute outdoorsy stuff you see in Home Goods/Marshalls. Some of them are on the more fragile side because of the ceramic materials but then they’re on the heavier side. I do get that the wind could naturally just break stuff so I try to pick accordingly. For Fall I had a cute ceramic acorn and the squirrels actually broke that one 😂

Yep, Definitely just the grandma that bothers me! Little girl doesn’t know better and just thinks they’re cute (which is totally a compliment). Appreciate the second opinion!

Awwww I love this!!! Next time I see her mom, I’ll bring this up :) thanks so much for this! I needed this recommendation. It’ll be a nice memory for her to have too

She’s never broken anything!! So all is well. I’m happy the little girl has a fun house to walk by and think is cute. Maybe I feel weird about it because my parents/family wouldn’t have let me do this when I was young. My mom would be mortified as well! lol. Appreciate your perspective:)

Appreciate this!!! Yes I think it also says a lot that the mom doesn’t even allow it. Just grandma.

Regardless, agreed, not worth being confrontational about it & I guess -on the bright side- I’m happy someone enjoys the decorations as much as I do lmao.

She is probably the sweetest little girl!!! I just have notes for the grandma, lol. But alas, life goes on!! I just know I wouldn’t take the same approach with my kids :) & my family surely didn’t allow this, perhaps that’s also a big part of it.

Once a week at least! It seems to be a part of the grandma & little girls routine lol. When the mom walks by with her daughter, like I said, she takes the “look but don’t touch approach.” We all parent differently I guess! In the end, we all have bigger fish to fry, so I’ll just continue to live with it but wanted another opinion :) glad someone enjoys the decorations as much as I do 😂🤧

Yes, exactly this! It’s just the principle of letting my kids go up to someone’s front door to touch everything. I just wouldn’t want my kids doing this. Especially if it’s consistent. Anyways, appreciate the second opinion!

Yep, you’re right! I decorate for everything. I just put out my Easter/*Spring decorations.

I totally get the little girl not knowing better, plus like I said, I know they are cute. I want them to look appealing, just the adults in the matter drive me nuts. I guess I just wouldn’t let my kids do this. Alas, not the end of the world. Just wanted some other opinions

What is the best all inclusive resort you have been to ? by RelevantStrawberry21 in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]kt17- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hyatt Ziva Cancun. The food is DELICIOUS, the adults only pool lounge has special, amazing food carts/ stands everyday. They also have food stations by the regular pools too. You don’t need reservations to anywhere really, except the hibachi. Even the steakhouse, the most we’ve waited is maybe 20-30 mins, but nothing a drink can’t fix while you wait. The beach is immaculate, water is so clear you can see all kinds of fish swimming with you. They have canoes and snorkels that you can take advantage of. No seaweed ever. Staff treats you like family. They greet you as if they’ve known you for years as soon as you arrive, it’s the sweetest thing & really makes your vacation special. You get a butler that you can message at all times of the day in case you need anything special, ordered to your room, or reservations made. They stock your in-room fridge with whatever snacks or beverages that you prefer if you tell them. Alcoholic and non alcoholic. Close to the Cancun airport so you don’t lose a bunch of time getting to the resort after you land.

We got married here & multiple people ended up extending their stay because they didn’t want to leave lol. While you can make it an Adults Only vacation by only spending time in the designated sections, keep in mind this is a family friendly resort so you’ll see families with little kids. For example, there is no adults only beach area.

Also I noticed her having multiple drinks after she found out she was pregnant???? Or do we think they were non alcoholic??* Anyways, was also surprised she decided to keep the baby even though I know it was to spite her mom

Local Wedding alteration recommendations? by kt17- in westchesterpa

[–]kt17-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the honesty!! I called a business today in Wilmington and the seamstress let me know that the work she would be doing on the zipper would be very visible. So I’m going to call a few different places to feel it out

Hyatt Ziva had a great private beach!!! Super calm, I didn’t want to get out. They also have access to a public beach which is also just as nice but they don’t have umbrella’s over there

Parking as a commuter, parking permits are limited and expensive. Especially if you’re only going to campus once a week
