I can't frigging sleep! 😭

They are doing road construction close by. They have three vehicles constantly backing up and making that incessive Beep! Beep! Beep! As they back up. At times they all back up at the same time. The night is so quiet I can hear it well. It woke me up at 3:30 am. Now it's 4:47 am and I am wide awake. To make matters worse I have heartburn. 😭 What a way to cap off your birthday. ☹ Rant over.

Oh no! Oh that would burn me up. I am such a light sleeper and what a horrible thing to happen on your birthday. I'm so sorry. Please call the police. They should not be working that early in the morning. That should be against the law. Please call the police. This should not be allowed. I hate this is happening. 😡

@LadyGrace They have actually been working nights for the past month. ☹ For some reason it just really bothered me tonight. They must be working really close to the house. It is 5:18 now. I think they have shut it down for the morning rush hour. I might try going back to sleep, but I have to be up in an hour. ☹

@Musicman oh no!!! I'm so sorry honey. Maybe when you're finished with whatever you have to do you could take a nap in the afternoon or early morning. You might have to try ear plugs and maybe a sleeping pill the next night. I don't want to see you lose any more sleep. I hope you can get back to sleep at least another hour. I pray you do. 🫂

@LadyGrace Thank you very much 😊

@icedsky I have seen that done on TV.

@Musicman wrap a t shirt around your eyes and ears.

That's crazy!! They're doing work that early?? Geez. If it was me I'd tell em how I felt because they shouldn't be doing any work until after 8am I believe. Call the police and tell em noise disturbance.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@twiigss They have been doing this for a month now. They work nights. They even have a cop with them because the law requires them to when they shut lanes down. Normally it doesn't bother me, but tonight they are really close to the house. ☹

Sorry to hear that. They should do it around 10-11 PM.

But then atleast, let's not spoil the good mood and
Think about it the other way round. The Mayor of your city wants road to be built on your birthday. It's special.

Well, I TOTALLY know why you have heartburn. 😉 I am so sorry the construction is keeping you awake. AFTER your meeting today, plan on taking a nap.
MMarco · 36-40, M
@4meAndyou I'm gonna be more radical and say, stuff a banana 🍌 in their tailpipes.
My last Birthday Party was when I was nine, and I got up in the middle of the night with chickenpox. Mom wasn't too happy.

Make sure it wasn't a waterline break.

What’s the address
A few pops in the air and they’ll get the message 😂

Happy Birthday! They do a lot of paving on busy roads during the night. Although it is annoying it definitely would mess up traffic during the daytime. I hope you catch up on your rest though.

@Sevendays Thank you very much 😊
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
Would a fan or some type of white noise be good to help drown the sounds out?
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@cherokeepatti I don't know. That beep, beep beep just needed to stop. Last night we had a rain storm. I don't know if they worked or were off, but I didn't hear them last night. 🙂🙂🙂 Of the other hand our electricity went out for four hours.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@Musicman At least they are trying to get the roads repaired and working at night to speed it up.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@cherokeepatti That's why I only complain on here. I like having the roads completely redone. They are taking up all of the old asphalt and completely repaving the road.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
So,sorry.
Hope it ends soon,seems odd they doing construction so early.
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@Justmeraeagain I think they are trying to have it all done before season. Season starts in December.
4meAndyou · F
I hope you were able to take a nap after your meeting today!
Musicman · 61-69, MVIP
@4meAndyou Sadly no. Something kept happening to wake me up every time I started to drift off. ☹
Road construction in the middle of the night? 😲

@Blondily They have been working on it for a few months so I'm hoping they will finish soon. Sadly the other two bedrooms are currently being used for storage.
Blondily · F
@Musicman If it was me I'd make room in one of the other rooms to sleep in. lol
I hope they get it done soon.
So sorry you have to go thru this.🫤
