So, it wasn't bad enough that I had a trying day physically yesterday.
Of course not. What could add to my misery? Well, what about the building manager knocking on my door at 9 a.m., saying "Sorry, but there's a leak in your kitchen." Of course, I was sleep confuzzled and in ghastly pain from all that silly walking yesterday, not to mention contortions on the examination table at the doctor's. Oh, yes, this is definitely what I want to hear. NOT! So, the plumber was in and removed everything from under my sink, making a hole to expose the pipe and also one above the top cupboard. And then I got the really good news: they're going to have to open up the fireplace wall, which means moving Every. Fucking. Thing. away from it. They're coming in on Tuesday to do the knocking down. And it's not just me, it's also the little old lady who coincidentally also has mobility problems living above me. Hey, universe, we don't need to be the chosen ones. ::grumbles at the whole situation::
So, I was feeling sorry for myself (hah, that's not hard these days) when I received an unexpected phone call from the birthday boy who wants to invite himself over on Monday (as he'd had to cancel last month's visit). Is my life complicated enough yet? But, hey, I need the diversion and the champagne and nibbles and fascinating company, so I said yes. And then I went back to groaning in pain.
I don't know where the day disappeared to, but then again I wasn't up to much. Some very hot (really near scalding) water to ease my back pain, a little nibble of chicken because I wasn't particularly hungry (not a surprise there), 30 minutes of TV and the rest was reading and day-dreaming. Because being out of this world seems to be a much better idea.
Please forgive me if I sign off with grumpy hugs,
H.
