Taking a time out...

I am taking a 'forced' timeout while our fireplace is being installed.
I am trying to stay as 'out of the way' as i can as i don't want the installers to think that i am 'overseeing' their work. There would be nothing worse than to feel like someone was watching and scrutinizing your every move.... not that i would actually know what they were meant to be doing! It's always weird having strangers in your home though, i always feel i need to stay out of the way when we have people like pest control or anyone in to fix anything. I guess that's the 'female' in me, maybe if i were a male i would have to stand over them and make sure they were doing everything perfectly.  
I have tidied up the bedrooms, done the dishes, put the washing on and have no basic tasks left to do so i thought it would be the best time to visit my blog as i didn't think it appropriate to sit on the couch and watch TV while they work ha ha! I have my very best 'busy' face on and am ignoring them as much as i can :) It is really funny listening to their conversation though, wondering if they wished that i wasn't here so that they could swear!
I am really looking forward to having the fireplace in the house though and i was very disappointed thinking that it may not be put in today as rain has been predicted and of course, for once, the weather man was right. Luckily they got here at 8:00 am, and the rain started at 9:00 am.
As you can tell i am rambling because i don't really have that much to say on the subject. I may follow this post with another one a little more interesting :)

  1. You are funny but I do and feel the same with strangers working in my home. Glad you were able to have the fire place put in today.
