feng_shui_houseI got up at 7:30am and dressed in non-working clothes because the pool guys were really and truly going to come...well, did a few chores, including moving a couple tarps to use to catch dirt when they dig & heard trucks around 8:15. Big trucks. Trash men, I think with a faint and fading hope...Many big trucks. I went to the front & couldn't even open the gate to pick up my empty recycling bin until I asked one of the workers to move a big flexible pressurized pipe out of my way. The sewer pipe refitters, whatever they are DOING for the 5th(at least) time in front of my house are here with 4 Huge Trucks directly in front of Ehouse and stretching to either side. I asked the man who moved the pipe & he told me they'd be 3 or 4 hours. I hope the trash men get through.
I was considered calling pool guy to warn him & decided not to, because what if the pipe guys get done sooner? What if pool guy can park down the street & start anyway. I come in from snapping a series of photos of the truck parade to see a message flashing on my phone.
Pool Guy. Apologizing. A pipe broke on the job they did yesterday. They have to go drain a big pool and fix it. *SIGH* I returned his call & he swears up, down and sideways that they will come on Monday & work all week straight on Ehouse's pool.
*****Ehouse, what gods hath thee offended?*****
Shall go put the tarps back & change into working clothes. Later.
On the GOOD NEWS front, last night I found in my mailbox another box of Czechoslovakian Gluten-Free goodies from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Also, my tomato bushes are starting to get the hang of things. I just collected enough to make a nice salad for lunch.
