What is it about headphones that screams to my family… “Go bug mom!!” The second I put my headphones on to listen to music everyone needs me, wants me, or just has to ask me something…right now! I end up missing all but small snip-its of my music. It’s irritating!! I’ll take them off for awhile thinking ok maybe they’ll settle back down…and they do. As long as I leave the headphones off..15, 20, 45 minutes go by and no one wants me. So I once again put them on and it starts all over! Mom, mommy…Tammy…Mom!! Ugh!! And if that wasn’t bad enough then they’re also getting snippy with me because they were talking to me and I didn’t hear them… so they have to repeat themselves. God Forbid.
I just want to scream… Go Away!! Which sounds horrible. But It makes me angry that the only way I can listen to music is with headphones because everyone has their volumes cranked. The TV is too loud, my husband PC is way too loud, The kids are making lots of noise with their various stuff. Most of the time I can’t think because it’s too loud. So I can’t listen to the music without headphones…my music would just mingle with the rest of the noise and sound yucky.
