My neighbor is driving me nuts!

[marlakay]

Day 3 of him power washing house and driveway, until today I didn’t know what it was, I thought he was drilling something it is really loud. Last two days was about 8 hours today at least 12 and he is still going!! It’s 8:30pm here and my nerves are shot with the virus and being stuck inside listening to this.

I am hoping he is working late because he has to turn it in tomorrow.

Its a young guy early 30’s alone now because wife and young son left him after he had affair with 18 yr old. Few months ago it looked like wife might be getting back with him and girlfriend gone but last 6 weeks no one. So maybe being alone gave him a bit too much time to think about how he screwed his life up.

Do I sound like a nosy neighbor? Lol...just a covid survivalist with nothing better to do. I mopped the floors yesterday what more do ya want?

1. Get him to do your driveway and house

He needs the distraction, listen to audio book with ear buds - win win

5. If I hear it tomorrow

I may try that...he is 2 doors down from me wondering how his next door neighbors 2 teachers teaching online all day next to their 3 kids are liking the noise...

2. 3 days? He ought to be near finishing. Good luck.

3. Good grief - when we had our house power washed it took half a day!

But that crew knew what they were doing, so I guess they were more efficient. Or maybe they weren't just doing it to waste time?

6. I rented one once and took about 5 hours. But good point, he's probably in no hurry.

7. Maybe he's enjoying the vibration

4. Three days?

Unless his driveway is REALLY long (1/4 mile or more), it should have taken him a day to do both the driveway and house, especially with an 8 hour day. That's why it's called a POWER washer.

I have an electric one and am still able to do large amounts of sidewalks, driveway, etc

8. Driveway 40 feet long

Small house. This guy is a bit out there a Christian republican (not sure how affair fit in that) and tried to run for city council. They laughed him off in the paper. He didn’t even have a job. His wife worked at local tv station and he stayed home with toddler and had affair.

11. Sounds like Duncan Hunter,... he's your neighbor nextdoor ?

Aren't you lucky ?

[marlakay]

13. Two doors down

He finally just turned off and my ears are still vibrating.

14. Ear plugs might help.

Any local drug store.

9. Go find an eighteen year old hottie. Take her to Victoria's Secret....

for some hot outfits. Dump her off at his front door step,... ring the bell ... then run.

That should keep him occupied for awhile so you can get some quiet.

Or get some ear plugs or turn up some music.

[marlakay]

10. Ha ha

Hubby says it was real quiet when the last 18 yr old was there.

[magicarpet]

12. Pre-occupied,... attention diverted.

15. Is his name Rand Paul?

Either way, I'd invest in a good BB gun.

16. At 11:30 pm (time on your post) I think you should have asked him to stop for the night.

He's probably breaking some local ordinance about noise after a certain hour.

Okay, see on your profile you're in Southern Oregon. Still too late for him to be doing that Sh*t.

17. Hi. Yes if it was after 10pm I would have

I believe that is the time that causes actual disturbing the peace laws.

I don’t hear it yet, its 8am here so hopefully he is done!
