Hi everyone! Busy weekends for us all. Hubby and I went to a comedy show last night. It was great and we needed it. Then today we went to a garlic festival. Bought some overpriced food but it was a beautiful day to be outside. Got home and took the dogs to a park.
I don't want to freak anyone out so I won't post anymore Heather dvds. I like her. She is funny, clever and very much a Christian. Nothing vulgar.
Henriette , I remember when my daughter would stretch. It made me freeze what I was doing. She was very active sometimes. Linda I used to bathe my dog in the tub. It was always quite the job!! Missy I hope you're feeling better. Elsie, are you feeling settled in? Are your neighbors quieting down some?
I hope everyone has a nice day or evening.

Yes, very busy weekends! Great workouts. ((take it easy)) Henriette. 
Hey Peg. It's not really a neighbour thing. A bit of neighbour noise/music etc. I would welcome every now and again. Since Sept 7th, there has been drilling, drum re-surfacing & other industrial work happening at the nearby Dam EVERY night. I have literally just had one night's sleep. It is quite disruptive. I waited 5-6 night days before complaining to be reasonable, but they aren't being reasonable and the district gave them (the contractors) a noise variance to do whatever they want basically. (I guess the noise variance was bought.) Everyone from the district and from the dam just try to keep diverting attention away and it is so very tiresome. Saturday night it started up before 2:30 am. My neighbour & I have walked over at night following all the noise, taken videos and sent it to the district, but still nothing. I have vertigo all of the time and am not feeling well at this point. Sometimes we have to go in the car to get a nap. We've tried everything besides going to the media, so I guess that is next. I just need to go to bed like a normal person & sleep. For this type of noise, unfortunately, brown noise, earplugs etc. just do nothing. I went through a similar thing about three years back when a skytrain was being built 365 nights a week where I had been living for 11 years around here and when we could afford it, we moved. It took awhile. The neighbouring city we moved in was good and the apartment was relatively quiet although the lease was just 10 months. So, I moved this Summer again - July. We just stayed there for month though because the place neighbouring ours had a grow-op and there were vibrating fans etc. going 24 hours. We moved in here in August, which on the surface ought to be a quiet family neighbourhood, but now this. We cannot afford to go live in hotels etc. for the time being as we are paying (not cheap) rent. Sorry for the rambling .....I'm just so tired. So tired. I am supposed to be planning my DH's birthday celebration next month, but that is not happening right now.
