Re: Sasha intentionally drove her car at me yesterday
Rogi,
I have told Chris and Sasha nothing about you personally.
I am afraid Rogi that you have created this toxic situation. Things
were fine
before you moved in. Perhaps you can use as much energy to try to make
amends to
both myself and to your neighbors.

> 5) We are making repairs to the property without

>
> 10) I refuse to pay for repairs to their car. Not

>
> 11) I left a "nasty note" on Sasha's mother's in law
