The kiss of the hammer

The works continue.

This morning the guys started at 6:55.
But not with the longing, sweet knocking that would feel now like a soft whisper from the pretty girls' lips or the beautiful chirping of little, happy birds.

No.

This morning I was woken up by the aggressive attack of the jackhammer! And it goes like this:

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
RRRRRRRRRR-RRRRR-RRRRRRRR-RRRRRRRRR
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
RRRRRRRR-RRRRRRRRR-R-R-R-R-R-R-RRRRRRR


You're complaining about waking up from your crying baby?
Ever woke up with your head 1 meter from a crying jackhammer, jackass?

But the jackhammer rarely is alone.
Soon enough he was joined by his good friend, the sledgehammer, whom I already knew from yesterday. And then they sang their song:

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
RRRRRRRRRR-RRRRR-RRRRRRRR-RRRRRRRRR
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
RRRRRRRR-RRRRRRRRR-R-R-R-R-R-R-RRRRRRR
BANG!


Not my favourite duet to wake up to in the morning.
And I thought the sound of my alarm clock was like the bells of judgment day already.

  • 6:55 am sounds like paradise if your little boy is waking you up between 5 an 6 in the morning. The sound of a little child's call to his parents might be a lot friendlier than the one of your jackhammer, but you have at least one or two hours additional sleep ;-)

    Anyway, I can understand you're not having a lot of fun with that noise - I keep my fingers crossed for you that they are fast workers...

  • And generally jackhammers and sledgehammers go away after a couple weeks... Anxiously awaiting a blog posting about how nice and quiet it is in the morning.

  • Just see it as a little disturbance to get your terrace. Soon we will read about your terrace, how you enjoy it and maybe get invited for a BBQ :)
