Things that go bump in the night ...

Let's face it - when it comes down to it, "quiet" is not in my vocabulary.

I am the noisiest person I know of when it comes to everyday endeavours throughout the household.
For example, when I am stacking dishes, be sure to hear lots of load bangs as I accidently knock things together (somehow they don't fall apart or break - lucky for me!!).
And when I am giving the cat and dog their dinner, not only does my family know, but the neighbours do too!!
Oh and let's not forget about the good old trips to the ladies during the night ...

I CAN NOT BE QUIET!!!!!!!!!!!
I have tried many a time ... *insert sad face here*.

But then I feel absolutely terrible afterwards because I always end up waking everyone up - especially my sibling (who shall be named Figglesworth for all intents and purposes), my poor sibling Figglesworth who has to sleep in the room below all the water pipes and next to the laundry which has a poltergiest that lives in the laundry fan (the fan that spins, not the paparazzi - although it is possible it's the latter; stranger things have happened...).

Tonight I accidently woke up Figglesworth, which isn't good because Figglesworth has been having sleeping troubles the last few nights. I feel so mean - I didn't mean to wake Figglesworth, but I REALLY need to LEARN how to DO things around the house QUIETLY.
(This is a very serious matter - it's in capslock)

Goal of the week: to be a quieter person...
Likelihood of this working: umm...


I guess this will be easier if I stopped pretending to be a bull in a china shop...
