My anger with my sister's behavior consumes me, sometimes. Somehow I need to be released from it. On Monday, I will contact my lawyer to ask that the unreasonable delay be dealt with.

Since we bought our home/property over one and a half years ago, the former owner and his girlfriend still want to pass through our property at least twice per day to feed their rabbits and chickens. We still allow them to keep a key to our gate and share our mailbox. We allowed this as a favor, but it's going on too long. When Hubby brought up building a fence between our properties (typical here) he became hostile. He had even asked if whomever builds a fence, if a gate in it could be added between our two properties, mostly so they could potentially drive a vehicle through, if needed. We said "No". As the man is elderly we have not prevented his daily walkthroughs. He needs a better access to his barn from his property. In the spring, when such preparations are easier, we will give him a deadline and then change the locks. Someone needs to get that fence up, too. We are willing to do it and pay for it. Though I feel for him (our property was in his family for over 100 years), I value our privacy. Almost every window in our house faces the courtyard he walks through. Every time they walk through, it frustrates me. Sometimes they even wave from outside, with us in the house (they look in). We have to keep some curtains closed most of the time. They also snoop around our property. Much of the small village knows some of our business.
