Good Morning to You Too...

Today is my day off... and I woke up to the wonderful pounding of hammers and nail guns on the wall RIGHT next to my bed, I felt like I needed a helmet in case something came flying through the wall or something.

The neighborhood our townhouse is in is being renovated so there have been workers redoing the roof, siding, and paint, and today was the day that they finally got to our house. It just happened to be my day off -in which I would have enjoyed some extra ZZZzzz's. Lovely.

Exhibit A:
Please note the forklift (fully equipped with a BEEP BEEP BEEP noise maker), the big containers that make a shrieking noise every time the doors are opened, and let us not forget the nail gun sitting right outside my window, oh oh or the worker man who repeatedly yelled "bano! bano! bano!" (spanish for bathroom) while standing on the roof outside of my window.

So I guess it is time to get my day started....

That's just my luck too! I had to get up at 9:50 this morning & someone called the house & the phone ringing woke me up at 9:40...at least I had to get up in 10min but I wish I could've slept those extra 10!

too bad the forklift wasn't a red convertible Saab. Then it might have been worth it
