Just When You Think You're Out, They Pull You Back In

I'm back..., sorta. The long days of contracting hell are almost over. Few things are quite so dislocating as home improvements. Everything must be moved, timetables revised, trips postponed, social activities suspended, work is constantly interrupted. Sleep schedules are a mess.

Yesterday evening the last of the invaders, a plumber who was repairing leaks caused by earlier installers, left and we thought we would soon be back to normal. But not long after he was gone I heard a cry of anguish from my spouse. She had detected a small leak in the drain system he had missed. So it's not over yet. AAAARRRRRGH!
