Unfortunately it is hardly ever quiet at my house. Even when I am home by myself, there is still so much noise. When the fireplace is burning, a fan starts up after a few minutes to distribute the heat. Since we have fourteen feet high ceilings and no ceiling fan, we use a regular fan to move the warm air around and heat up the room a little faster. Our projector TV has a built in fan and the computer has one too. All those fans drive me nuts sometimes.
However, the noisy fans are nothing compared to what we came home to last Sunday after spending the weekend with friends in Oshkosh. While we were gone the insurance company sent over a guy to deal with the flooded basement. He ripped up the carpet, took off the base boards, drilled holes in the walls to pump hot air into, and installed seven industrial fans and dehumidifiers. And they are LOUD, I tell you.

He came today! All is quiet once again. Bliss....
Ahh. But is all warm and dry??
Join the fanclub!
Oh, I bet it is loud. More than one fan stops being 'white' noise.
Nice that you're high (are you?)and dry again!
Did he "save" the carpet?
Sort of. It's all ripped up, it appears the padding is missing and it's full of yellow stains. But it's dry.
Hey there! I'm visiting from SITS! I, too, love the sound of a quiet house. Looks like everything is back to normal now.
I can so relate - I was a music freak, too! Now I rarely have anything going on while I'm home - unless I want to clean house fast. Then I put on satellite radio and some rocking oldie's station to pump me up for the job. Visiting from SITS - enjoyed this post!
