W...I feel the same way about radio and television. When forced to listen, I feel like Superman when someone sneaks up with a sack of kryptonite. I realise that my noise tolerance differs greatly from that of most people. It's weird as I like some music - like, I can enjoy a good fiddler busking celtic music at the farmers' market up in Nova Scotia, but noisy crap - loud pop music in grocery or other stores - electronics stores are about the worst - I can't even think and forget what I came in for. Thank goodness for being able to shop for things online because Otherwise I woukd go without. <br />Hope you can resolve the problem with the noisy neighbour. Unfortunately, those kinds of oeople have such a different concept of what constitutes noise and they seem to make racket regardless of what they are doing. I think their hearing is orobably wrecked from years of listening to music far too loud. <br />Oh, the captcha word is oullarmi. Sounds like a good word to describe bad sounding noise.bevhttp://magickcanoe.com/blog14noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517881874258683381.post-25621565148199302812011-10-24T18:58:34.588-04:002011-10-24T18:58:34.588-04:00and - I think my silence confuses the farmers.

When I come in to milk, I turn all the radios off. <br /><br />I was fortunate that matt also enjoyed good silence.meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064483599165161879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517881874258683381.post-91627937951338446072011-10-24T18:54:23.931-04:002011-10-24T18:54:23.931-04:00We would make great neighbors, bev. I do most ever...We would make great neighbors, bev. I do most everything in silence as well. I occasionally listened to music at home in the Before (mostly to clean the house, or do some large project that needed distractions), and we often had music on in the car when matt was driving - but music really affects me, and our usual soundtracks are painful. Having music on in the house now is probably the first time in a year maybe. <br /><br />Oh blissful solitude. Don't know that I could have handled the campground. It would have been an ugly place, fuming in my head. <br /><br />The noise has stopped down there now. This house has no sound insulation at all - but I can hear him talking on the phone, and in 6 years of living above the landlords, I never heard that. With their tv on, I could hear a low rumble, and I could hear their kid shriek at bathtime. Otherwise - very quiet here. The new guy has only been here a week. He has music on most of the time, but tonight - that was craziness.

Badly played loud music and screaming babies will drive me postal in no time. Oh, and also arriving at what was expected to be an almost empty campground only to find that it is a special Hallowe'en campout weekend and there are small sugar-fueled ghouls and goblins racing from halloween decorated campsite to campsite in search of more chocolate bars and chips. Sage and I both felt like we were going postal together. Fortunately, Sabrina is stone deaf or she would have joined us. <br />Yeah, I would not pretend to be tolerant and ignore this as it is definitely not the type of situation that will improve. Time to read them the riot act.<br />Good luck.bevhttp://magickcanoe.com/blog14noreply@blogger.com
