Finally, a picture...


By lunchtime today, they told me that there was no need for any more painted boards. I stopped functioning right there and then, and haven't come around since. The others are still out doing something, but me, I'm inside with my computer, fighting to stay awake.

Rain, not my cup of tea

Coming home yet again to a shattered yard. This time the tent under which I am to paint the panel had flipped and now looks like a white turtle with severel legs lying on his back trying to get up. And the plastic covering the isolation had yet again tried its wings. I am trying to comfort myself with; at least the kitchen is dry....

Funny story....

See, when the rain comes pouring down, and by that I mean raining cats and dogs, small cracks in the construction becomes three extra taps in the kitchen. When I came home I found puddles of water by the stove, window and fridge. Mattias came rushing home from work, my own excellent mother and her wonderful man also came to the rescue and we have padded, filled, tore down and fixed. So, the thing one can hear now is not dribbling were it should not dribble but a warm fan, heating the wet panels.

This sunny week

This week, summer came to town for REAL. We've been coming home around 5 and 6 pm this week and it has still been hot as .... so work wise, not much has happened. The electric company has been here and they dug up a bit of the cable that I spent all of Sunday putting down (do not like Umeå Energi). Apparently they've (Umeå Energi) got this new fabulous idea, cause they have realized that it is not humane to have us dig up the yard, that the cable doesn't have to be dug down at all! just dig it as far down as we like for our own benefit. Just one question after this moment of enlightenment from their side: HOW THE H**L CAN WE TRUST THEM THIS TIME???

It can't be said enough times, if you have a choice, do never EVER use Umeå Energi!!!!!!!

Half a plastic roof

My brother came around today, and together we put half a plastic roof. And I can tell you that it was a lot more fun than the 6 hours I spent to the electric company's job, digging to put down a cable.
