Too cold to go out for the day.

Flask of tea, packet of your fav bikkies, a good book....... and hibernate in your bedroom.... maybe a bottle of whatever you fancy....... and a "do not disturb" sign on the door. Take a radio with you too, to cover up the banging & crashing the workmen will make.

If they disturb you too much, have another flask of tea....... or go back to bed.

At least you will get all the mess out of the way in one hit. Previous suggestions all good.

Give someone the key and have a day out,,,,,,,,,just make sure you can do without some stuff till its all done.

heating may mean a few bedroom up though.

dont worry till you have or need to.

Just ignore them all, let them get on with all the jobs, hibernate in a bedroom with a good book or something. It will be fine and when finished think of your lovely new kitchen.

Do not crumple Sharron!!!! Sounds brill to me and 19th Jan will give you plenty of time - and as for the solar panels, well you might as well have it all over and done with - I'd love a new kitchen, but never will have one now

I am coming out of my dark place and coping with things a bit better, being able to deal with bigger problems and achieving a bit more.

After a couple of attempts, I have the front room floor sanded and varnished and the front room decorated.

I have been thinking I will take do the rest at my own pace, sand the hall floor and then go on to do the bathroom floor, get the bathroom up together and then get on to the bedrooms, all at my own pace.

The tenancy is assured now and when the housing officer came to see me I asked her if she could give me a date for work to begin on the new kitchen.

Due to some administrative cock-up it had not been actioned.

Yesterday I had a call to say they would start the kitchen on 19th January. I was, of course, delighted about this but a bit worried about getting all the stuff out of the way (little panic).

Today I have received another call and, on the same day, I am having solar panels and heating installed.
I don't know whether to be delighted, to panic, to run away, crumple in a heap or what.
