Hubby brought our bed down from the attic, and I pulled clean sheets out of the dryer. I was a little worried that the mattress would be lopsided from being stored on it's side for so long, but it was fine. The only problem during the night was that there is a downspout just outside the window, and there was enough moisture collecting on the roof to drip through it. You wouldn't think a single drop of water would be noticeable, but when it drips from fourteen feet to the bottom of a metal downspout, it is loud. When the downspout dries out, I am going to glue a piece of rubber to the bottom to see if that will stop the sound. That dripping was a form of water torture. Steady dripping might have been restful, but this was an inconsistent water torture. Drip, drip, drip......drip......drip, drip.................drip........drip, drip, drip, drip.....
I hear you on the drip, drip, drip. It's the little things that can drive you over the edge at night.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and weekend. ♥
Hopefully the rubber will help mute that noise.
ReplyDeleteWhen my middle son was young, we took him to the dentist for his regular visit. She asked him if he used dental floss? He said he used it every night before he went to bed. He would tie a piece to the faucet and the dripping water would silently run down it into the sink.
