Drilling II

Remember my post about "the drilling"? It's still going on!

And there are stories.

A couple months ago I had some dental work done and went under IV sedation. Afterwards, Brad drove me home where I was was super sleepy for the rest of the morning. I curled up on the couch and fell asleep - head back, mouth hanging open, heavy breathing - the epitome of beauty and poise.

I woke up to this scene:

Brad is poking me and whispering, "Jen, you might want to wake up, the construction workers are here."

As he helped me to the bedroom he was laughing and telling me they were giving me sideways glances as they slammed the window out of the opening and I slept through it all.

Thanks honey.

This morning I was on the phone with Telus, trying to do something online (and getting nowhere) and getting ready for work - all at the same time. A knock at the door...

Suddenly there are 8 construction workers in here throwing drop cloths everywhere, knocking on walls, unloading tools, ripping the temporary tape off the windows and making tons of noise. They were here to rip out the big windows.

I had no idea they were coming.

Ziggy was super stoked - and totally in the way. So I herded him into the spare bedroom, got his food and litter in there, organized everything online and hung up with Telus. When I finally came out of the bedroom one entire window was gone and the place was deserted.

I was only an hour late for work. The rest of my day was equally as chaotic and mental.
