We have a quiet neighborhood. However, we do have children that play outside everyday, which is refreshing to see. Too many kids stay indoors instead of playing outside.

There are at least a dozen cars that go by down the road a couple of hundred feet away every day. LOL.

Apartment's yard workers use leaf blowers all day, starting early in the morning.

Our neighbors are great, however, the airbase nearby is noisy. We tune out the noise, but guests find it uncomfortable.

Everyone in my and adjacent neighborhoods got barking dogs during Covid. I wake up, go to sleep, and get woken up to barking. I love dogs, but leaving them out barking for hours day and night is not cool.

At least leafblowers aren't going at 11 pm, 2 am, 3:30 am...

I think it is just right but would be nice not to be so close to major access road

Neighbors do a lot of firearm target practice and that includes a canon. So much for thinking a more riral area would be quiet...

I wish I did but a good quality emerald is so expensive. Yes, there are "created" emeralds, but unlike diamonds which look great, the created emeralds do not.

To continue my story (this is 3/3), I was very envious when one of my best friends got faux emeralds for her birthday and wore them first. However, I was happy to wear mine anyway. My friends bulled me because I was a "copycat" even tho they all knew I had received mine first. #meangirls!

My parents got me faux emeralds as my first pair of pierced earings and I looked at them in the box until my mom could find the "self-piercing" rings that slowly worked into your ear over a couple of weeks. When I proudly wore my birthstone earings to school my best friends bullied.

My birthstone is Amethyst. I like it. I like the color. But one, I prefer Emeralds. And two, I don't wear jewelry anymore.

No, I have no rubies, and I wept mock tears for my husband's benefit answering this.
