I had something similar a few years ago. A very irritating noice between 7 and 8am. I knew where it came from, but took a subtle approach. Made a small note, starting with "To my neighbours from number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8" (of course in Dutch). I have never heard that noise again! Obviously that's not an approach you can use for your issue.

As Avrie suggested: make it the burden of the concierge!
Yes, making it the burden of the concierge would probably be better for my own sanity in the long run.

Another busy working day is over and the final sprint is tomorrow. I will get up early so I have enough time to enter the remaining events into the events calendar of the family magazine. The data export takes place at 15 pm. It's the second data export in a short time; the week before was another one. My company produces three family magazines for different regions. Every two months, two of them are published in short succession which I call the "buzzing time" from now on - the other one is published the month in between (usually the less busy time unless it's the time before summer holidays and Christmas). I noticed that playing Two Worlds II, watching YouTube videos and postponing my mod creation stuff helped a lot to survive these demanding weeks.

Thank you! And you! :sn-2:

I simply forgot it :sn-11:.

Because my brain was occupied with a lot of other things that took more priority like getting everything done until the deadline of the data export which I mentioned in my previous post. All the important events for children and families are now in the events calendar at least, especially the events that take place in the Easter holidays - be it courses, workshops, excursions, museum tours or theatrical performances. The things that I haven't finished will be published on the website of the family magazine instead.

Now I have enough overtime hours to take about two weeks off. I probably take only two days off for now this week - my best friend celebrates her birthday. Tomorrow, I will let my boss know my decision regarding the overtime hours.

It's good to have two days off after the buzzy time. Now I can finally concentrate on other things again like writing new articles for my blog and new topics in the forum and finishing my mod project.

But I don't want to rush this time. Everything happens in its own time. The reason behind all this: I just practice patience to feel more comfortable in the end. The patience thing also includes the growth of the forum.

A short note on the side: The first post of the Regulars' Table got a little "facelift" regardig clarity ;)

Good day, all! Hope everything is going well! Coming up tomorrow, I will be posting one of my favorite Etienne and Hador stories - The Cabin in the Snow. In fact, that is the story that I included in the AFK version of my mod The Coffee House (as a book found in the Guest Room). Till then, I hope you all have a great day - and am happy you got a couple of days off, Selene!

I'm not really a fan of cyber punk, especially not incorporated into Skyrim. But this evening I have watched some parts of a cyber punk movie called Alita: Battle Mage, and I really loved those parts. Going to get me the movie on DVD/Blueray for sure!

The day was a bit chaotic. First I had the appointment at the doctor and waited long despite the appointment. Then I drove back to my flat to get my luggage (I didn't want to take it to the doctor). I arrived on schedule at the central station nevertheless. I seated myself and waited for the train to depart... and waited... and waited... I found out that the train couldn't depart due to a malfunction. So I chose another one. I changed the platform and heard the announcement that the other train starts from the platform that I had left before instead. Luckily, I still had enough time to go back to the previous platform. I reached my destination with a delay of half an hour.

My best friend and I celebrated her birthday by eating tarte flambée in a restaurant (most of my friends love eating in restaurants :sn-31:). The waiters were so nice and courteous. We definitely will visit this restaurant again.

Is this the fantasy version of Alita: Battle Angel? :D Sorry, I couldn't resist.

It's a great movie and I wanted to write that it's too bad that they didn't make a sequel. But now there's hope.

Good day, all! Glad you and your friend had a good time, Selene - and that the train issue was only a slight misadventure!

And, for another type of adventure entirely, here is the latest in the Adventures of Etienne - this one being one of my favorites!

The Cabin in the Snow

I liked this one so much I included it as a book in my Skyrim Special Edition mod The Coffee House (though only for the AFK version) - https://www.afkmods.com/index.php?/file ... fee-house/
