Well, I have water. And hot water too. I’ve been doing loads of laundry and dishes in the dishwasher. Not to mention sweet, sweet BMs on a toilet.
But my bathroom and bedroom ceilings still look like this. Not to mention the coarse dust on everything and the uprooted furniture. I had several entries with pictures to post, but my colour-calibrated monitors are sitting in the spare room. I have no idea when the contractor is going to be back to get everything dirty again. Otherwise, I’d do some cleaning.
Either the construction company is on holiday (which contradicts what the worker said), or they’re dodging me, because I haven’t been able to get a hold of anyone for days now. I’m stuck in limbo here, literally living in the living room (what a fitting name). It’s left me rather sick and unmotivated.
“The highest form of good is water…”
grats on getting your water back. I think we take simple things for granted sometimes, until we lose them. As bad as your ceilings look, for now, they’re a reminder that you still have a roof over your head :)
Hope everything will be back to normal soon. Happy New Year.
That quote reminds me of something from Dune. I certainly won’t be taking water for granted anymore.
I used to do some office clerical for a contractor. I marvelled at how he would leave people’s calls unattended for days. They just went from job to job to job and he rarely spoke to anyone till they were free of the current job, it seemed… But he was particularly disorganized…Hope yours are just on holiday.
E-mail me and I’ll tell you the fun story about why I value plumbing : )
Unfortunately, as long as people like that are busy (which means they have enough work), they’ll never be required to improve their quality of service. I’ve received word from the contractor that he’s trying to schedule me in somewhere, but no exact time yet.
