Yesterday was extremely busy: so much editing, and then Frost Place planning and, yes, the squeal came back and Tina the Subaru was diagnosed with worn rear brake pads and will have her procedure on Friday morning. She has become famous at the mechanic's. Open-mouthed stare: "Is this the car that had three transmission replacements in a month?" Modestly down-turned eyes: "Why yes! [slight giggle]." Today, will be much the same, without the car-repair patter, and plus a trip to mall land to find a rug to cover up the plywood that covers up the hole in the bathroom floor. [This would make an excellent boring song along the lines of "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly."] If these sentences sound hectic, then I'm doing my job.

Anyway: Richard III folks: I need to hear from you. Do you want to take a break till after Christmas? Or do you want to plow ahead into the play? I am at your service, either way.

HI!
Please, let's plow ahead. I know I'm merely speaking for my own case, but things are slower (vacation soon!) at this point in time. But you know I'll go along with the group's preference.

And how exciting to have all of these fixes done in your home! We've also had a mild flurry of repairs and improvements as well. It feels good. (Yay, the upstairs toilet flushes!)

Take care...C

i'm good to continue onward. The pace is working for me.
Glad your house is getting attention. I'm rapidly hangind clear plasic draps over my windows as Ican't quite manage replacement of all 14 windows!

To be honest, a bit challenging here with illness and Christmas but if the majority are for going on then okay, and thanks--know you have a lot going on there.

I am more than willing to take a break if that would be easier for David and for you Dawn. I know you feel the same way Carlene.

I can do either, honestly. I just don't want to push if people are overwhelmed. What about a compromise? We could take a break now and give David a chance to relax and focus on home priorities, and then get started again right after Christmas--say, the 27th--while Carlene is still on vacation. Would that work for everyone?

Lovely idea. =)
In the meantime, though, I think I might just read the rest of the play ahead...

Sorry, all, didn't mean to make a fuss about it. But anyway, okay, thanks, much appreciated. Sounds good to me, the 27th it is.
