Repairs and Rennovations

So I came home from pottery last week and my bathroom ceiling was raining. I quickly cleaned things up and put a couple of buckets down, and headed upstairs to talk to my neighbor. She wasn't having any issues. I then called the landlord. Middle of the night, I hear a sploosh in my bedroom as the water comes into the ceiling over my closet area. Turns out her tub drain and tub surround had both been leaking. Contractors, plumbers and carpenters have been in and out all week. I've moved my bathroom and bedroom's contents into my living room and kitchen and have been working at home (thank goodness for VPN!) and keeping my cats barricaded in the living room. Thankfully there's an empty apartment on the upper floor so I can use that washroom during the day while they are working on mine.

Unfortunately, they manage to leave a huge mess at the end of each work day and I wind up having to spend time sweeping and scrubbing things down. Also unfortunately, when it rains, it pours. It happens to be one of my busiest work weeks in eons. I've been working evenings too. Well, besides having to move my bedroom out on Tuesday night (thanks for the help, Jay) and spending a couple of hours at Jay and Lisa's to use thier shower, have a nice home-made dinner and unwind a wee bit.) I'm still working. This is my break and as soon as I've posted this, I'll be getting right back to things. I should be enjoying the beginning of a long weekend now. Hopefully I'll come up with a brilliant design that I can whip up before midnight...
