Carla Burke wrote:I notice that many of these sounds are difficult to avoid. So, what is everyone doing to mitigate the irritation? Ear plugs can be a great help. Avoiding the places can be a good way to go. But, (rather than simply grumbling & living with it) what strategies have you developed for dealing with the noises that bother you, when you can't avoid it or use ear plugs?

Timothy Norton wrote:I have been really fond of the noise cancelling technology certain headphones have these days. It is amazing how some can filter normal conversation to audible levels but cut out anything loud. If the wife or I are going to be particularly loud we utilize these technologies. Now comes the quick safety note. Most noise canceling headphones are not a substitute for actual hearing protection if the noise level is high enough to cause hearing loss/damage. I'd steer you to hearing protection products if you are planning on running a chainsaw or something similar.
I'm also a fan of background music in my house when possible. I have a record player, some audio equipment, as well as sometimes just singing something random while tootling along. Sometimes having something to focus on can help not pay attention to things that are more bothersome.

Eric Hanson wrote:The bathroom fan in my master bath. It rattles incessantly. I am tall enough that while showering I can reach up and tap it enough to calm it down, but my wife, being a full 14 inches shorter than I am can't possibly do the same. When she takes a shower, the fan starts to rattle, and then the rattle gets worse. Since she takes longer showers than I do (thanks to the fact that my hair never gets more than 1/4 inch long), the rattling gets pretty loud. And when she is done, the fan kinda needs to stay on to vent out the bathroom--and the rattling gets worse still. In the mornings, inevitably, I am the one who turns off the shower fan, not her.
GRRRRRRR!!!

It's never too late to start! I retired to homestead on the slopes of Mauna Loa, an active volcano. I relate snippets of my endeavor on my blog : www.kaufarmer.blogspot.com

I choose...to be the best me I can be, to be the strongest me I can be, to learn the most I can. I don't know what comes next. But I'm gonna go into it balls to the walls, flames in my hair, and full speed ahead.
