Yep! She doesn't stop talking during the day and snores at night

2 words duct tape

That'll work, then two words from HR...You're fired! Problem is if she leaves and goes to another room, which could happen today, I might get someone even worse. She's really nice, I just want her to shut up!

two words not three duct tape not install duct tape

Don't see how it's going to be helpful unless it's installed! A time out sign would probably be more useful

sign beside tape reads my hearing aid

Thanks Eric, but I don't think passive aggressive will work right now. It's probably better that I deal with the bottled up emotions from living in a toxic environment for the past three years. My new roommate is simple triggering the stuff I haven't dealt with. She's really nice and easy to talk to, and willing to negotiate. So she's not really the problem, I am.

i don't doubt it but younguns can sometimes need reminding and humor is a good teaching aid and duct tape is way cheaper than breathe right strips for the snoring

Well she's not a youngin, she's older than me. And she did offer to let me use a couple of her earplugs.

eric22t Joined Wed 08/13/14 Posts: 27928	Tue 01/09/18 06:27 AM
then don't forget to ask her how to double them up

Piscesmoon02 Joined Wed 11/02/16 Posts: 56490	Tue 01/09/18 06:45 AM
Lol, I think the earplugs will bother me more than the snoring.

pillows work real well to stop snoring

Piscesmoon02 Joined Wed 11/02/16 Posts: 56490	Tue 01/09/18 06:49 AM
Yes they do. I have three so I can use one of them

eric22t Joined Wed 08/13/14 Posts: 27928	Tue 01/09/18 06:52 AM
so do ping pong balls but for those you need duct tape too

Piscesmoon02 Joined Wed 11/02/16 Posts: 56490	Tue 01/09/18 06:55 AM
I'm not putting ping pong balls in my ears The pillow will work over my ears much better

eric22t Joined Wed 08/13/14 Posts: 27928	Tue 01/09/18 06:59 AM
no silly you put the pillow over her face and she rolls over to escape you tape the ping pong ball between her shoulder blades and she won't be comfy when she roll onto her back (where most snoring occurs) so she rolls back to her side

Piscesmoon02 Joined Wed 11/02/16 Posts: 56490	Tue 01/09/18 07:01 AM
Oh That's pretty cool thinking

eric22t Joined Wed 08/13/14 Posts: 27928	Tue 01/09/18 07:03 AM
or you can just throw either of them at her every time she starts up
