Can it get worse?

Lift is beyond repair. New one arriving this pm. Decorator coming this pm to give estimate. Got log fire going on third attempt (remember when all I had to do was find two Boy Scouts)
All I need now is a carpet fitter to refit the carpets temporarily until I get new ones.
Just hope the work keeps coming in to pay all this.

Oh Galen that is all awful for you. I do hope it doesn't take long for things to be sorted. and some for you too sunseeker its a pity we don't have a warming fire emoticon.

ga Yes I am well bundled up - bear a striking resemblance to the Mitchelin Man!!

Poor you, Galen. 'They come not single spies but in battalions.' I hope you have stressed the extreme urgency of the situation.

Like buses, problems rarely seem to come one at a time. Hope your stairlift is soon fixed up Galen and perhaps you can set goals to get the other things done and then at least you will feel they're in hand.
sunseeker - time to pile on the woolies I think.

galen poor you! You must be so fed up, I do hope it get sorted soon

I do sympathise Galen I am currently shivering because the engineer is coming to service my Rayburn later today (Rayburn has been off since last night as it obviously has to be cold for him to work on).

Hope the stair lift can be repaired (if it can don't you just know the engineer won't have the part that he needs with him!)

Oh poor Galen, what an awful time you are having!
Thinking of you and hoping things are sorted soon......

Oh, Oh Galen!! Immensely frustrating for you. Will these help ?
