The Electrician Fell Through the Ceiling of My Bathroom

Fortunately, his only injury was a large, bloody scrape on his arm.

I have a strip 18" wide cut from my kitchen ceiling, running from the entry to the wall.

There are two holes in my bedroom ceiling.

Plus the aforementioned unplanned hole in my bathroom ceiling.

My small house is full of plumbing materials and scraps of pipe and sheetrock.

The Daughter and I are at my parents' house again tonight.

I have not had a full night's sleep in two days.

I have not had any significant alone/down time in three days.
For an introvert, this is torture, and leads to high stress and grim silences.

Blessings on [livejournal.com profile] kateri_thinks and [livejournal.com profile] _storyteller_ for their phone calls.

And blessings to all my friends who are celebrating Passover and Maundy Thursday.

My spirituality this week is to find the serenity to ride the tides as Earth and Water are re-aligned in my home.

Ugh! Introvert hell! Many prayers to keep you sturdy and steady until that delicious down-time comes along.

And, um, well, even though there's very little evidence of this truth, this too shall indeed pass. Soon!

Goodness, that is one crazy subject header! ;-D

I hope things smooth out for you soon....

Greetings qos, and thank you for adding me. I've been away from my LJ for awhile as things have been a bit hectic here lately but I was excited that you added me particulalry when I read that you identify as a "Grail Priestess." You may have noticed on my profile that I identify as a "Guardian of the Well Maidens." (Well Maidens - Grail Priestesses) I would be very interested in chatting with you about grail spirituality and in hearing what being a Grail Preistess means to you and would love it if you'd contact me at Owen_Gwalchmai@hotmail.com

- Blessings!

Greetings, Owen!

I would love to speak/write to you directly about Grail spirituality, but I must ask your indulgence to delay that for a few days while I'm dealing with my house being in pieces around my ears.

Also, if I remember correctly, I think we live in the same upper-left-hand-corner of the country, so the conversation might be able to take place over a cup of tea (or something).

I look forward to making your better acquaintance, after the dust settles!

Tea Sounds Great!

Yes, I am just north and east of Everett. Not much out here but mountains and rivers, and that's the way I like it!

I fully understand your situation. There was a time, several years ago now, that I had the entire roof off of my house when I added a second story! Did all the work myself, gave my wife grey hair ~chuckles~ Fortunately, we lived in New Mexico at the time and I was able to rely on good weather.

Anywho, tea sounds great. Let's keep in touch.
