I'm copying Beca's idea and writing a Thankful Thursday post just to put things into perspective....
First I'm thanking all of you for leaving me such sweet comments you have no idea how much it means to know that there are lovely people like yourselves that take the trouble to leave messages of love and encouragement, it's really appreciated.
I'm thankful that the damage although bad enough could have been so much worse.
I'm thankful for this great guy called Wayne who introduced himself as the project manager he's such a character and had my daughter and myself in fits of laughter, he is also very sympathetic and seems to know exactly what needs doing. He has taken samples of the ceiling, walls and floors to see if there is any asbestos and if there isn't, plans on putting some dehumidifiers in for a couple of weeks to dry the place out and then will leave the work until the New Year so at least I'll be able to stay in my home over Christmas. If they find Asbestos a specialist team will be called in and the work will start immediately.
I'm also thankful that my car has decide to behave itself, it spent last night at the garage so that the mechanics could see if there was a problem when they started it up...they found nothing wrong! very strange, the guy said and I quote 'it must have been having a moment' !? well all I can say I hope it doesn't have anymore moments and it behaves itself from now on.đ
PS Im also thankful for the great Drops Advent Calendar check it out, great free patterns everyday and it's such fun to open that little door.

It is good you can stay in your home over Xmas.You really made me think about what to do in an emergency so I have found out where the tap is and what to do.A good project manager is always good and one with a sense of humour even better.
ReplyDeleteI have often thinking about you and I'm so glad that your problems will be fixed.

Glad to hear that things are looking up for your house, I hope that it will soon be sorted and as lovely as it was before. Having a plan in place always makes things seem better doesn't it. As for your car, I hope that continues to behave too!
ReplyDeleteGlad that you are positively thinking :)

Thankful Thursday sounds like a great idea. You know that people are so kind to you because you are so kind to them, right?
ReplyDeleteHI Linda! I am glad to know that troubles seem going away!!! Yey, New year will be better and more cheerful than this one... I want to believe!
ReplyDeleteI checked the Drops website - such a great idea of little doors! I might try some of the patterns once I am done with ever ongoing projects...lol
