Tuesday's Tirade

Last Tuesday I had the rant and I'm still in the same boat so maybe Tuesday needs to become Tuesday's Tirade.

The same boat I'm in is the "my house ain't fixed yet and I still ain't got no kitchen yet" boat! I called my contractor last Thursday and he said he'd call be back later that day. No call. I called Friday and left a message because I hadn't heard from him. Still haven't heard from him. It is Tuesday right?

No work has been done yet this week. I'm going to have to put on my other hat now. I hate that hat. It's tight on my head and makes me act irrationally. But it has to be done.

This work is still going on!

No it's not done yet. And NO I don't have any pictures of it. I still don't have a kitchen to cook in and I'm darn tired of eating out. The wood floors are done. Everything is painted. The carpet still has to be done and the granite and appliances have to be put back in. Almost there. I just wish it could have happened before I went back to work on Monday. Yes. College is starting. My classes are full and I look forward to bending their little minds to my grammatical ways!

What a mess!

Yep a mess. That's what I have here. The city ran a sewer line last summer. Thump, thump, thud all summer long as they dug along the backyards of my whole neighborhood so that we all could be hooked up to city sewage. I was fine with my septic tank thank you.  The next step was hire a plumber and hook into the city line. Simple enough. But my plumber left a 6 inch piece of pvc in my clean out and the sewage backed up into the house. Now the inside of my home is being gutted. Hard wood floors, cabinets, carpets, tranquility and summer peace all ruined. Help...
