     The Thomassies continue to cause problems for their neighbors.

If you think things have improved between us and the Thomassies, who live next door to us, think again.

The "Greatest Show On Earth" has only become greater, if that were possible, but it has done exactly that.

Cordelia continues to provide for her lazy-assed husband, Willis, who is still living off his disability check, even though he could really work if he wanted to.  Cordelia works two jobs, just so they can have enough money to put food on the table or pay their bills.  It's really bad how Willis takes advantage of the government.

What makes the situation even more disturbing is that Cordelia is pregnant.  I see her stomach growing larger and larger with each passing month, which can probably mean one thing: I will proabbly be the one assigned to watch their kid when it is born.  It is a boy, as far as they (and we) know.

I knew she was gonna have a baby: you could hear their lovemaking in the middle of the night.  If there's one thing you don't want to hear, it's someone doing that, especially when you are trying to get to sleep, so you don't be dragging in school the next day!  It was nothing short of humiliation!!

Now Cordelia is with child, and I am not looking forward to the kid's arrival!!

Willis isn't working, as you can probably figure out by now.  He claims he has back trouble.  Yeah, RIGHT.  If he has "back trouble", then why do I see Willis cutting the grass or picking up weeds every week, or playing basketball with some of the neighborhood guys?  "Disabled", my foot!  He could proobably get a job if he put some effort into it and got off his deadbeat ass!!

Willis and Cordelia are two of the most pathetic excuses for human beings I have ever seen in my life!!

My poor dad is still stressing out.  He is being threatened of having his disability taken away because the stupid people say that "he is able to work".  Yeah, right.  My dad is in a wheelchair (or walks on crutches for short trips; he has MS), and he is always in some amount of pain!  He also has cancer of the stomach and may have to eventually have surgery if the cancer spreads.  Things are not lookin' all that good for my dad, and I am understandably worried about him!

Mom is working, trying to provide for our family; we are doing it the right way.  Meanwhile, you have idiots like the Thomassies next door, who milk every opportunity to scam the government and seem to get away with it! Nothing would make me happier than to see them pack up and move away ... far, FAR away! I am tired of living in a circus; I want my old life back, the one I had before the stupid Thomassies came to twon!

*To be continued.*
