I had a neighbor across the street who had the worst odor I’ve ever known. It was mostly cigarette smoke, but I think it was also her teeth. The husband was also a heavy smoker, and their son was not popular partially because of the odor. I could smell her coming up the walk to my front door.

It wasn’t just me. It was the talk of the neighborhood. She tried to sell us a car once. Not on your life.

Their house was horrendous. Not really dirty, just incredibly smelly. When they moved, the entire inside had to be gutted, including the walls.

Barring all this, she was quite a nice lady. Just before she moved, she got a job in customer service and I couldn’t quite believe it. She stayed there years. I always wondered who hired her.

“I always wondered who hired her.”
