Jean in Newcastle Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 A dog licking himself in unmentionable places. Another dog softly snoring. The a/c still working hard. The cat, who really could benefit from nasal surgery, whistling through his nose as he sleeps. All the other people in this house have abandoned me for their various pursuits. The bunny is in the other room plotting his escape and his eventual takeover of the world. But very quietly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyStoner Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 An airplane. Wind in trees. Some road noise. Several kids on their stoop playing beyblades. All the windows and doors are open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMamaBird Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The boys talking upstairs in their room. Gerbils scratching in their tank. 6 week old kitten purring on my chest. 14 week old daughter sucking her paci in her sleep. Birds singing outside. And very faintly, the highway off in the distance.

Amira Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Now I hear birds and an air compressor that's keeping a giant princess chariot bouncy house going across the street. And ds is humming and chatting to himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckymama Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 At least four different bird species The creek at the bottom of our yard Occasional far-off hammering The creaking of the umbrella-style clothesline as it rotates in the breeze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerileanne99 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Ahhhh- Pretty much sweet silence, hooray! Hubby just left to take dd5 to Parent's Night Out at her gymnastics studio:) There is a clock ticking and the baby is happily and noisily slurping whilst BFing. Sheer bliss except for the frequent and absurdly loud gas he keeps passing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara in AZ Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Oh my goodness, I'm practicing the organ at the church and my DS10 wanted to turn on all the stops and try out one of his piano pieces. My head hurts and I've got to be out of here now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amira Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I hear the generator running the pirate ship ride in the empty lot next to my house and the mariachi band across the street. It's loud, but infinitely better than the karaoke parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancingmama Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Lawnmower. Book on cd playing in boys room. My fan. Last night when you posted this I was listening to an owl, screaming outside my window. That is an unnerving sound in the middle of the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-rap Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 La Folia playing on national public radio in one room, and a documentary of Harper Lee and To Kill a Mockingbird on PBS TV in the other room. Outside? Perfectly quiet, and all of our windows are open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 The way-too-loud ticking of the living room clock The general hum of the computer ..and that's it. DH and DD are camping.

PeacefulChaos Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Right now, I hear the hum of the computer under the desk; something... water? ... running in the kitchen. The clang of dishes. Occasional coughs and footsteps. Automatic doors when they open. Can you tell what I work at? lol :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
