{Weigh In Wednesday}

Ok, I'm going to cheat a little with the Weigh In Wednesday.
NO, not in the way you're probably thinking. I'm just going to weigh myself tomorrow, Thursday, instead of today, Wednesday. Why, you ask? Because I worked last night and didn't wake up until lunch time. I always  weigh myself in the morning and I'm going to stick with that. So, I'll weigh myself tomorrow, Thursday, after I've had a normal nights rest (hopefully).

I also woke-up today to the sound of silence. That doesn't always happen when I work nights. My new neighbor below me always blares their music as loud as possible, no I'm sure it could be louder during the day. I feel kinda bad for complaining about music being played during the day since the noise ordinance says it's okay after 10 A.M. and before 10 P.M. However, it's no fun at all to be woken up after working 12 hours to loud music.

I discussed my options with my co-workers. I said I was going to go down there and politely ask them to keep their music turned down. They all suggested ways in which I could be the more annoying neighbor.

Funny to talk about, yes, but I don't want it to be like that... you're annoying so I'm going to be even more annoying. No. Why can't we just be adults and talk about it?

So, since I got home super early this morning, and didn't want to be woken up later, I decided to leave a note on my neighbors door in the hopes that she would read it before blaring her music. The note simply said,

Dear Neighbor,

I'm writing to politely ask you to turn down your radio/TV during the day. I work nights and sleep during the day. I would really greatly appreciate this. If there's ever a time I am too loud, or you need anything, please feel free to let me know.

Thank you so much,
Nicole, #blah blah blah


That's not too bad, right? People can be so weird now-a-days, so I was really hoping they'd be nice about it. So, either they got my note and kept the noise low today or they've been gone all day. Either way, I'll take the blessed silence.

  1. Hey, just found your blog through Kelly Anne! I always weigh first thing in the morning too. I try to keep it consistent because I want to know of every single little creep up before it happens lol!

    1. Exactly! It doesn't hurt that you usually weigh less in the morning also! ;)

  2. I had to come check out your blog since we follow each other on IG! :)
    Your note was very nice and in my old age (just turned 30) I've learned that sometimes it's better to attract flies with honey than vinegar. ;)
