My friend Kelly and hubby just moved into an amazing spanish place in trendy Picfair.
And she wonders why not a single neighbor has come over to introduce themselves. Kelly’s a girl that I think is smarter than me about most things. She’s not hung up on manners or etiquette like I can be, she’s more laid back, and takes a week to return an email. So her expectation of anyone coming over, well it’s kinda hilarious to me.
A new neighbor moves in? Who cares. Maybe they’ll say “Hi” when they do see you, but that’s all you can expect. And who says they should come over to her? Am just not sure whose responsibility it is to make the first neighborly move.
Sorry Kelly, you’re way off on this one.

Get over it Kelly–you didn’t move to Wisteria Lane or some town out of a movie…this is LA..Picfair for goodness sakes.
Nice in theory but not happening.

Tell me where she lives and I’ll give her a “Welcome” she will never forget. Picfair is nice but too many gangs.
