My Neighbor Drove over My Lawn Every Day as a Shortcut to Her Yard

After my divorce, I didn’t just want a fresh start—I needed it. That’s what led me to a sleepy cul-de-sac, into a little white house with a porch swing and a yard I could call mine. That lawn became my therapy. I planted roses from my grandmother’s clippings, named my mower Benny, and found peace in the hum of the grass and the clink of my sweet tea glass.

It was sacred ground—until Sabrina rolled in like a storm in stilettos. Her SUV began cutting across my lawn like it was a shortcut to her kingdom, tearing through flowerbeds and crushing weeks of healing beneath her tires. At first, I asked nicely. Then I tried rocks. But when she shoved them aside and smiled like it was all a joke, I realized: this wasn’t about flowers—it was about me. And I’d been invisible long enough.So I got clever. Chicken wire under soft soil turned her morning joyride into a crunchy disaster. She called a lawyer; I called a land surveyor. Turns out, she’d been trespassing the whole time. I gathered proof, photos, reports, and mailed it all with a note: “Respect goes both ways.” When that didn’t stop her, I went nuclear—installed a hidden, motion-activated sprinkler system that blasted her car, face, and pride in one glorious spray.

That morning, I sipped coffee behind the curtains and watched as the water soaked her white Lexus and her smug attitude. She stood there, drenched and defeated, finally realizing this lawn wasn’t hers to conquer. She never crossed it again.
