CHANGING TIMES

Our neighbors are having their house painted.

The painting crew arrived this morning, set up ladders and began work.

Here's what I'm faced with. (Be sure to turn up your volume.)



Right now they're sanding various surfaces with some kind of power tool.

I sort of remember the good old days when the painting crew would arrive with a boom box blasting music out into the neighborhood.



¡Ole!

  1. That sander would make an appropriate accompaniment to a certain scalded banshee I heard recently!

    1. They say they'll be done by Friday if the weather holds. It's supposed to start raining Wednesday night through the foreseeable future..

  3. The noise must be annoying, but it's great that the neighbors are maintaining their property, which is good for you and other home owners.

  4. I wouldn't mind the sanding, but the music might get to me pretty quick.

  5. You say they arrived in the morning. How early? That's the difference between an annoyance and assault!

    1. I don't think they got here until about 9 or after. No problem.
