Summer Squabbles & Snoring
We had a fun filled Father’s Day weekend and the kids gave their dad a ton of fishing paraphernalia. I even found a pair of flip-flops with fish all over them.
I hope all the other fathers out there had a good one. We couldn’t actually go fishing because it was raining but we will be prepared anyway.
I have been slightly snarky because my husband is snoring up a storm but some of the neighbors seem even crankier. There are a lot of kids living here and sometimes it gets loud but for the most part, they get along. It’s the parents that seem to have more issues and there have been complaints about the sound of basketballs bouncing.
Initially I thought they were concerned about their safety because of course they’re often bouncing balls in the parking lot. No, they don’t like the noise in the daytime. So apparently, basketballs are banned in our complex. Soccer balls and beach balls are alright I guess. It just seems slightly insane to me and I don’t know how they plan to enforce this. Perhaps someone will come to the door confiscating all basketballs.
I do understand being disturbed by noise because I’m a light sleeper and have a snorer here. On the other hand, people were quite aware there was a ton of kids living here and they’re not required to be muzzled in the daytime. So, does anyone else have a rule about not bouncing basketballs? If this is their biggest beef with all the children living here, I think they’re lucky to have such well behaved children.
