In a recent homework assignment we had to name our worst sound. Mine is happening right now. My neighbor is using his leaf blower and I can't stand it. He must be blowing every speck of dirt off of his driveway and it just keeps going and going. The high pitched sound is driving me crazy. I would love to go over and unplug the thing and give the guy a rake and broom!! It would be a lot better exercise and would save my sanity!
90 day goal: 4 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training each week.
I have a new worst sound - firecrackers....the kids on our street have been lighting them since June 1 (yes, over a month!!)....and I thought they were going to stop after the 4th, but last night - they were going again. I was ready to SCREAM. I went outside to talk to them and the parents were right there with them!! I'm just over it.

Me too... but we do own one... but only use it about 2 times a year... I thought I needed it...
Usually we sweep/rake... or we do nothing... and wait until we've crossed the line from "a natural look yard" to "the neighbors are starting to hate us".
