Laundry

The wee house has no laundry. In July this didm’t seem like much of an issue. Although there was never any question about the laudromat issue. I did laudromats. All through University and beyond. Never again. So every week I truck out bags of laundry to the corner (literally). A day later they are back, washed, bleached beyond recognition and folded.
Busy and Tired. Yup that would be just about it.
Mind you. Truth we told. I’d rather have this. Even if I do have to fold the clothes forever again.

Patience is a Virtue ~ But Enuf is Enuf. And that’s a fact.

On September 4, 2008 we received our variances. It is now November 14, 2008 and we are STILL waiting for our building permit.
Some of the delays are no doubt on our side. But a whole pack of the days can be ticked up to the CIty. And if all made sense to me and if it was for a purpose and for the greater good of someone ~ well I would be just fine with this. But as far as I can tell this is purely a function of it not being a matter of great substance to anyone but us.
We thought that perhaps this was the week. But it appears the decision maker is away. AGAIN. So not this week. And my patience is rapidly shrinking down to ZIP.
Madness can just creep up on ya – did you know that?

Which would you pick? Okay, I don’t mean actually. As in forget colour and hardware and all the bings and baubles. We talkin only shape here. I need a small vanity (where did that moniker come from anyway?) in the sliver of rather small bathroom on the main floor. Assuming, and I really am trying not to do that, that the scale is accurate we are talking just over four feet wide. As in one person at a time. Well – only as it should be really. It is a bathroom. So whatever I do it must be narrowed considerably. From what might be its normal proportions.
And Gary if you’re looking – it is going to be painted. That’s just the nasty kind of paint brush wielding, primer loving kinda gal I am. Sorry.

Maybe a bit of happy news. Maybe dear friends fly in and are here in the City over Christmas.
Would be a reason to give thanks.
Joy is in the eye of the beholder…
For Susan……
