Household woes

[wiseheart]

had a completely unproductive day (and no, making paper ball angels doesn't count). The morning was wasted with trying to get our half-finished balcony wall dry again, as it had rained during the day, and our closed balcony was leaking again. I tried with the hair-dryer first, but that didn't have much effect. Then I broke out the big guns: the dinosaur of an electric heater and let it run for over an hour. Electricity bills will be somewhat extravagant next month, I'm afraid, but the wet spot dried up nicely enough. (Unfortunately, the stupid rain has started again, so this promises to be a self-repeating exercise). *sighs*

Then I fetched Mum from the church and we went to the Auchan supermarket and to a self-serving restaurant next to it because we didn't have any inspiration to cook at home. When we got back, I was just about fed up with life in general and doing anything productive wasn't an option.

Autumn break has come to an end, which means I'll have to go to work tomorrow again, most likely leaving Mum alone with the workers, whenever they deign to show up. I'm not happy about it, even though one of them turned out to be a former student of mine. I just don't like leaving her alone in the flat with strangers.

It isn´t nice to leave anyone one cares about with strangers. I hope they show up and that they make sure your balcony gets fixed.
