I live next door to my step mother in law and our houses are pretty close together. She has a variety of animals in her back yard and since the houses are close together, I can hear her when she's outside in her backyard. It also doesn't help that I have a huge window in my bedroom. So every morning she's out there at 6am yelling w/ her high pitch voice at her "babies" to come get there breakfast and I know she knows I can hear her and does she care...NO! ha ha it drives me nuts!! So I wake up every morning to my step mother in laws voice, it doesn't get any worse than that!
