And tiling. And I'd call and rip a new arsehole into the plumber and he'd be giving you a great big discount! That would be the same alternate universe that would have that HUGE hole in my kitchen ceiling magically go away, too! <abbr><em>Hyphen Mamas last blog post..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/MommyNeeds5Minutes/~3/-L7oAs_iIL0/joo-lie-forth.html" rel="nofollow">JOO-lie Forth</a></abbr></em> In an alternate universe, I’d fix your floor… because I’m REALLY REALLY good at floors.

I'm sorry I haven't been commenting....I have been thinking about you. And I'm really, really sorry about your Nan - that's just hitting a little too close to home right now for me to formulate any helpful or comforting words. I won't tell you not to worry about the money or the leak, but eventually the universe gets tired of fucking with us and when it moves on to the next poor sucker things will seem a little brighter. Hugs babe, and I'm sorry everything is so hard right now. I can't think of anyone who deserves a rainbow more than you do. <abbr><em>badness joness last blog post..<a href="http://badnessjones.blogspot.com/2009/06/garbage-picker.html" rel="nofollow">Garbage Picker</a></abbr></em> When it rains it pours, doesn’t it?

Wish I had a magic wand to make all the nasties go away but in this Universe it just doesn't happen. Sorry ;-( BTW, surely not coming back 'tomorrow' gives you an extra 30 days to pay the bloody plumber's invoice and that only after you have made a deduction for the extra laundry costs involved in mopping up the continuing leak that he shouldn't have left anyway? Have some info re EDS from my friend who is a physio that you may not already have. Let me know when you have some time and a few non-preoccupied brain cells and I'll pass it on ;-) Coping is good . . . and manic grins are so ‘in’ this season Veronica.
