Ok, ok. It's done now.
They're done.
It's over.
I can stop being broken!

-=-=-

In total, it was only 6 days work.
Three days from a couple of weeks ago, (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday) followed by a Saturday job a week later, and then the Tuesday and Wednesday that we've just had to deal with.



The plasterers have done a fine job.
You can no longer see the big crack where the old door once was.
There's no longer a worrying square patch in the ceiling where we presume somebody fell through and it had to be fixed up.
The ceiling no longer has a large bow in it.
The low brick-built shelf along the chimney wall is gone.
And all the walls are flat as a pancake, ready for decorating.
..


And that can bloody well wait, because even Mum's exhausted from the whole ordeal.
Oh, man, that was rough.
My head somewhat coped with the initial two days together, but when the third day hit, it hit hard.
Saturday was mostly workable, but by the final two days my head was in such a bad space, and even the subtle scraping of plaster was sending swirling echos all through my head.



When a surprise jigsaw suddenly showed up, at the last minute, and started cutting a new piece of skirting board, my head finally went "aargh!!!!!!" and I found myself having to go outside for a little walk up and down the driveway.

Whilst this was ongoing, we also had people out to build a new step at the back door, so there was all the noise of removing the old one, too.
All in all, the whole ordeal left my head spinning wildly, and I honestly haven't been able to focus on anything, this week.



And my head's barely worrying now. I've got so far through not-coping-well that it's pretty much given up on even caring that I'm 3 days late for AGameAWeek and 1 day late for an ALChoon.

I guess I've found that special Zen state of mind.
Om!!!!!



Thanks to the builders, plasterers and other folk who have helped over the past couple of weeks.
And special thanks to Michael Fernie for that lovely card that helped cheer me up in the middle of all this.

Normal service will resume shortly.
