Too Much of a Good Thing?

I don't have my new car yet, but my computer is back...



It's indescribably wonderful not having to squint at a tiny screen, and having everything be exactly where I expect it to be. My washing machine is also working again...



Yes, I know I said it was fixed before. But we've had ANOTHER visit from the washingmachine repair man, and this time, I think, we're good to go. You might say I'm on a repairing roll. Except...



Yup. I snapped this pic through my office's French doors. You remember the carpenters who were supposed to come rebuild our gallery back in July? Well, they finally showed up. They say they should be finished in two weeks.

My book is due in two weeks.

My problem's never the noises *outside* my head (though they don't help)...

Just a thought: You could try working longhand or laptop away from home during the day, then dock with the mothership after the boys and their tools have Millertimed away.

As of Saturday, I too am no longer beating my clothes with a stick down by the river. Some things, even *I'm * not that much of a Luddite!

Isn't there a Law or something that covers this?

Scraps of silk, scraps of muslin, scarps of cotton and the scrap threads lying on the workshop floor left behind by all the other designers at the workshop were carefully collected, sorted, ironed, pieced, stitched, restitched to create new surface textures.
