We live in an apartment on the third floor which has it's perks. First, no loud neighbors above us. Second, we don't hear people stomping up the stairs. Third, I can keep the blinds and windows open without stressing that someone will break in easily or snatch one of my children. BUT, there are down sides too. I'll explain(hopefully without ranting!)
I try to be a good neighbor. I am constantly thinking of Miss Manager(Yes, she is the manger of our complex) below us. Well, this morning Boss Man decided to get up early and give the apartment a thorough cleaning. I was excited that everyone, even Kissy Face(she's almost 2) helped. My excitement faded when I heard the vacuum being pulled out of the hall closet. It was 7: 30am AND it was daylight savings so it was really 6:30am to our systems! I pleaded my case with Boss Man but since Miss Manager had a party last night until around 2am and allowed her guests to slam her door everytime they entered and exited her apartment, he said he was unconcerned and that the building was built really well so she probably couldn't hear it anyway. Oh boy! Well, now my apartment is spotless and we never got a knock on the floor so maybe she slept through it.
