Mainly tinnitus then as well as that there is clattering in the kitchen because my sweet daughter is doing pasta for everyone because I’m not well. Then there’s music she’s playing quietly on Spotify too. Then my son is singing quietly as he plays a video game.

Gosh I’m not the only one with tinnitus then!

BejewelledCat · 31/03/2025 19:00

The children over the back screaming and fighting, footballs being kicked against the wall, next door shrieking.

Bloody neighbours.

nicky2512 · 31/03/2025 19:03

Dh drying the dishes. Ds cutting the grass. Dd talking to the dog!

Quercus3 · 31/03/2025 19:04

Blackbirds
Great tits
The dishwasher

ScrubMummy · 31/03/2025 19:06

The blackbirds singing to each other, and my Ddog drinking water. Someone has just walked past the house singing to a child they are carrying.
Of all of them, I prefer the blackbirds!

There's a lot of it about.

My peace has now been shattered by the arrival of DH home from work, asking what time dinner will be ready. 🙄

Deathraystare · 31/03/2025 19:09

The fan. People in next office talking - actually I think it is the tv which they have on for patients!. Me going clackity clack on the keyboard. People coming in and out the office and going home.

Apart from the constant food deliveries it is quite quiet. Past visiting time!

Chicken wings, chicken wings
Hot dogs and baloney
Chicken and macaroni
Chillin with my homie?

I know it well 😂. Ahh thanks all for replying, I love reading about everyone just going about their day and all of the lovely sounds.

Sorry for all of those with tinnitus x

The sea and blue tits

Imisscoffee2021 · 31/03/2025 19:15

Bubbles popping in the bath, the rooks squabbling in their nests, the village bus just turning a corner across the road and another car going in the opposite direction.

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 31/03/2025 19:16

I'm feeling out of sorts today so laying in bed next to dd(almost 6)

She's sucking on jelly beans very loudly 😄🤭

And I've got my fave show two doors down on in the background

offmynut · 31/03/2025 19:16

Birds.
Wooden wind chimes.

TomaytoTomaato · 31/03/2025 19:17

The dishwasher.
Random bursts of song from my teen!

Dilbertian · 31/03/2025 19:18

Dh cooking.
MrCat snoring on my lap.
Ds moving around upstairs, getting ready to go out and chuckling at something.
Another ds playing his bass without plugging it into the amp.

Lovely, quiet, homely noises.

AllProperTeaIsTheft · 31/03/2025 19:23

Birdsong
My dog's claws on the floor as he's walking down the stairs
Faintly, the sound of ds' music from the garage, where he's doing weights

StarCourt · 31/03/2025 19:26

My tinnitus whistling loudly. the tv DD has fallen asleep to. Some kind of lorry noise outside

Ytwi · 31/03/2025 19:27

Sheep manically baaing, it’s past their feeding time, they’re not patient, I’m not well though so they’re going to have to wait for dh, clearly animal abuse from me and they’re letting me know it 😂

Frostykitty · 31/03/2025 19:28

Sitting in my office. Traffic, and a teenage girl rapping outside with a group of other teens around her. My computer humming. And a ticking clock.

raspberrytart · 31/03/2025 19:29

Birdsong. Kids in park.

EveryDayisFriday · 31/03/2025 19:29

People talking whilst we are all queuing up for filming of a tv show.

Seawolves · 31/03/2025 19:30

Bird song
My little one "Goy"-ing away to himself in bed, he's almost 5, preverbal and 'goy' is his happy sound.

Springforwardatlast · 31/03/2025 19:40

Birdsong. It's absolutely beautiful and quiet otherwise.
I wasn't happy about the clocks changing yesterday but it was worth it to be sitting here at this time of night listening to the birds and watching the sun starting to set out of the kitchen window.
It's been a lovely day weather wise here too, compared to the last 3 days of rain, wind and cold.

MsNevermore · 31/03/2025 19:40

My dishwasher.
The never ending, incessant barking of next door’s menagerie of dogs 🫠🫠🫠
