| 0:00.0 | My entitled toxic neighbors have been having secret pool parties at my home for years anytime my family and I go out of town. |
| 0:07.5 | And I'm honestly completely blown away by this behavior. |
| 0:10.2 | And now I don't know what to do. |
| 0:11.8 | Here's what happened. |
| 0:12.8 | So a few years ago, my husband and I purchased a house with a pool. |
| 0:16.2 | Now, we are acquainted with most of our neighbors, but definitely not close friends with any of them. |
| 0:21.0 | They all seem nice, but we just don't have much in common other than where we live. |

| 1:06.8 | but we didn't go for Memorial Day because there was flooding around the lake this year, |
| 1:11.2 | and because a family member was just discharged from the hospital yesterday, and with the 4th of |
| 1:15.5 | July being on a Thursday this year, we decided to stay home this week and be available to |
| 1:20.1 | help this family member. Now, several times in June, the little girl next door has seen either |
| 1:24.8 | my husband or myself outside, and she has asked when we are opening |
