I only have one REAL complaint regarding "noise." All the elitist complaining and bellyaching on here by folks that should be celebrating retired life. Instead of complaining about 15 minutes of a bit of disturbed quiet, you should be shouting for joy at how you beat death for so many years and can now enjoy a few years of relaxation and stress free lifestyle. If this noise is so unbearable, install some noise buffers. Don't blame others for wishing to make enough money to provide for their families. Some folks are just plain SELFISH. Install double or triple pane windows and you won't notice what's going on around your neighborhood. There are three of us neighbors, grouped together that use either battery or electric lawn equipment and they can still be heard inside our homes. Do we complain? H*ll no! Everyone's lawns are just about perfect and landscaping is neat and trim. I guess there are a few of us that still remember more difficult times when everything was not perfect.
LIFE IS GREAT! And where else can you live where there is always someone nearby that are not off to work or school and will be there if you have an emergency? Where else can you live where neighbors are REAL neighborly and will lend a helping hand when you need it and won't ask? Where else do you have volunteer neighbors that are so numerous that they are just short of insulted if you choose someone else for a lift when you need car work done? We must-MUST live in a perfect community, if the best we can come up with when bored, is a 15-20 minute noise interruption complaint. The world is going to h*ll in a hand basket and folks around here are complaining about an interruption in their nap time. Go to bed LATE and get up before sunrise and enjoy life to the fullest.
It's your right to complain, but don't let your complaints define you. Are you healthy?
A twist on a common saying: I complained about loud lawn services until I met a neighbor that had no hearing.
