I really want to scream

[susandennis]

GET OUT OF MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW - ALL OF YOU - NOW!!!!!

Instead I smile and keep quiet. My back is killing me from working on a low bench with no back which is the best I've got since I can't get to the living room. Sheri just came in here to ask about the height of something and I told her, in the nicest possible tone I could muster, that I was too frustrated and stressed to make any such decisions. I told her to use her best judgement and I'd love whatever she did. Fortunately she backed off and so I didn't have to hurt her.

And to think that there is another week of this is just putting me over the edge.

SO GET OUT NOW and at least let me start my people free weekend.

It's 4 and they have to be out by 5 so now would work as well as in an hour and it would keep me from screaming or hurting people. BTW, Betty and Travis feel exactly like I do.

I truly feel for you over this entire ordeal. I know saying that sounds snarky or insincere, but I don't know how else to put it. I would be grinding my teeth down to nothing if I had to put up with stuff like this for so long. Please hang in there for both our sakes, as best you can, okay?

[susandennis]

au contraire! It sounds neither snarky nor insincere and I really do appreciate the sympathy. I'll spend the weekend locating some patience...

Wow, you really are an introvert. But introvert or not, I would be going insane with all the hubbub going on in your place right now. For me with the stupid sewer people, I've experienced a heightened sense of "go away" no matter how desperate the situation.

But just hang in there. You are going to love the end product, I'm sure of it.

Yes. yes. I am going to love it. Thanks.

I hate having a repairman in for more than 15 minutes. I'd lose my mind.

Calm thoughts, calm thoughts. It's not great now but as you say it WILL be lovely, and it WILL be soon, albeit not soon enough.

We were certainly happy we didn't have to live in our house at anytime while it was being renovated.
