It's Really Not That Hard To Keep It Down.

Tweet

I don't really get to sleep a lot. Due to bad dreams or having trouble getting to sleep because my mind just won't switch off. My dad and brother know this. I understand people have different sleeping patterns and I know mine is all over the place. But no matter if I nap during the morning, afternoon or a proper time at night. People in the house can be so damn loud. It is mainly my brother though. My brothers bedroom is right next to mine cause we have a small house. There has been so many times at night that I say goodnight to him and ask him to please keep it down because it is hard to fall asleep and would like to stay asleep when it happens. Could be an hour or two later that I am finally starting to drift off and then I hear his TV. It is way louder than it needs to be. I go knock on his door to ask him to turn it down and he does. Start to fall asleep then I wake up to gun shots and bombs exploding. It is like waking up to a war that is going on just outside my door. Sometimes it scares the crap out of me to be woken up with loud explosions. So it's either him still watching a movie or him playing a game like Call Of Duty but what is more annoying is when he keeps losing, he will start yelling out some things and it wakes me up. No joke, there has been so many nights where I wake up more than 20 times just to ask him to turn it down. Or he puts on music that is loud enough for me to hear the thumping of the beats. Or..and this is my favourite.... -_- My brothers dog barks when you chase him around the lounge room, so...both my dad and my brother have decided to run around and chase him. It's not just the loud thuds of someone running that is annoying. It's that freakishly loud shrieking bark that the dog has. They both know his bark wakes me up but no no no, they still play with him while I'm trying to sleep. Then first 3 times I ask nicely but any more than that and I tell him to shut the f*** up. Sometimes I feel like putting my tv up loud or banging on his door when he is nice and comfortable resting haha. But I would feel bad. :P Do you have loud people in the house that affect your sleeping? Happy MyLotting. ~AussieGal~
