Right now I can hear a TV, two tablets, and the music on my computer all playing at the same time. It's a cacophony around here! It probably won't be long before I have to retreat to the bedroom for a little peace and quiet.

........Where you will hear the hum of your alarm clock. The noise just never ends. Mornings at my house are like that. Two televisions and a radio all blaring out different sounds.

Use noise cancelling headphones with a player that is playing nice soothing music. Smile

Good Listening

Or even nature sounds. That's a good idea gofar. After awhile, too much sound constantly will start to wear on you. Too much of anything is never good.

Do any of you get irritable after too much exposure to lots of loud sounds? The situation Nymeria described would drive me mad and I'd get very snappish with people.

I get snappish after too much noise, too!
Last night my husband was putting up YouTube music on the TV. I like the music, usually, but he always has it too loud. I suffered through the Pink Floyd album at way too much volume. But after the second Mozart tune at a million decibels I shouted, "This is not Rock and Roll! It is not meant to be listened to at that volume!"
I'm seriously thinking the man needs a hearing aid.

I think my husband needs a hearing aid too, and he's not even 40. He listens to everything so loudly and it drives me crazy.
