Does anyone else find it stressful like I do when someone comes to do work on your house?

 

My friend & I were discussing this last week. She has had a new kitchen installed, & finishing off was a decorator who we know well from church. She said even having him at home was stressful- I presume its the being disrupted & unable to live like you normally do, ie make a cup of tea when you like etc :?

We had a bit of a windfall a few years back and we'd had an extension done previously but hadn't had the money to finish it off. So we booked a decorator to come in and paint all the rooms and put up skirting and coving. Hubby also decided he wanted the garden landscaped and they all decided to do the work at the same time. It was so stressfull, wherever I went there were workmen :roll: or I was having to make cups of tea, or queue for the loo :shock:

 

And none of them were dishy :shock:

I don't find it stressful providing they're doing a decent job, and I'm usually at work anyway.

 

The only bit I hate is if they leave a mess - but then I warn them before they start of the rules.. ....

 

I will leave tea and coffee making for them - they make it themselves.

 

They are only to use the downstairs loo and the seat remains firmly DOWN

 

The house is to be left as tidy as they find it

 

Not much to ask and they know that they have to abide by the rules!

 

It was just this feckless got that got my goat, and that was after the act so to speak.

I am still waiting guys *drums fingers*. He has until 5th May, which is fast approaching, if the money isn't forthcoming (surely he can't be THAT stupid :shock: ) then i will write to inform him that he has 7 days from receipt of letter to cough up or I get an enforcement order on him *tuts*

 

Clare(well'ard)t :wink:

 

Anyone who saw me sharpening knives on Saturday would now be veeeery scared!
