Remodeling

Post by Bama_Card_Fan »

The church where I preach is remodeling the kitchen in our fellowship hall. It's just down the hall from my office, so for 2-3 weeks now I've been putting up with all the various noises and inconveniences associated with expanding a kitchen and putting in a new outside doorway. Well we're also sprucing up the bathrooms, which are right across the hall from my office. Today, they have painted the men's room with a coat of oil-based primer. It smells like magic markers. I now have a terrible headache. I've had my door closed all morning, but it doesn't help much. And I can't open the window because it's August in Alabama. It's not very fun right now.

We went thru a 18 month remodel/expansion at our church and the pastors moved across the street, if you have a laptop leave or site this as a good reason to have one...

That sounds rough. I guess you will have to tinkle behind the church?

No, we have other bathrooms to use. Plus they're not working on the Ladies' Room right now, so as long as I warn the secretary ahead of time, I'm good to go.

Day of the last finals in May, the Unversity workers were outside on work platforms jackhammering the sealant off of every single window in my 1,000 window apartment building. This was great for all the students coming back from their finals after pulling an all-nighter.
