[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope. It would be inconsiderate to play loud music at 4 a.m. on a Tuesday; that's an unreasonable time for something like that. But 7 a.m. on a weekday is totally appropriate smoothie time, or food preparation of any sort. It is purposeful, time-appropriate behavior. Be glad it's not 6 a.m.[/quote] OP said it was 6am. She was making the noise for 3 minutes at 6am because she leaves at 7. [/quote] Not precisely at 6 am. Sometime between 6 and 6:10, DH grinds a tiny amount of beans for his coffee. Sometime between 6:20 and 6:30, I make a smoothie. We leave no later than 7, but often earlier.[/quote] Yep, that’s annoying. You are waking him up twice every day. [/quote] So sometimes your DH is grinding at 6 on the dot and you use the blender at 6.30. That's beyond annoying, it almost feels passive aggressive, like you're trying your hardest to be as annoying as you possibly can. You shouldn't be forcing everyone in your building to wake up at the time that you're awake. Especially when it's 6am. Maybe he has chronic insomnia and really needs that extra hour or two of sleep every morning. Maybe he works shift work and so you're really waking him in the middle of the night. Maybe he's up late studying for something or caring for an elderly relative. Who knows. I'd hope that you could at least make some effort to synchronize the timing of those extremely loud things and do whatever you can to dampen the noise - with towels, maybe doing that stuff in another room away from the shared wall if possible.[/quote]
