This week has been a really busy one. I have no idea if I am coming or going as they say. The refurbishment of my office was to last two days. As the manual skilled workers go - I dare not call them builders/carpenters - their counting skills has not developed future than two fingers. When they say two days they normally mean two days over three different weeks. I was gullible enough - yet again - to believe the work will complete in the specified time.

Two lovely Scottish men are strolling around my property with tapes and tools to justify an empty look in their eyes. On various occasions they seem to be disagreeing with their own drawings and with each other. From what I can make out of their accent they are saying "this is wee bit more work than we first thought". I have given up getting frustrated by their non ending tea breaks as I want to be in a good mood for my two consecutive social nights.

Tomorrow I am going to a theatre to watch an ex colleague peform as the leading lady in an amateur operatic play. She has worked hard and I am sure she will be a star.

On Saturday I will attend a big dinner dance for something else. I am looking forward to seeing so many people I haven't seen for a while and especially one person in particular. It is going to be great. I hope I am not worn out by working till lunch and running after the builders to dance the night away. I can't wait for Saturday evening!
