Day to Remember

While not the worst day of my life, or even a close second, today is one of the most uncomfortable days ever. Besides my personal procedure, the loud concrete drilling has been non-stop since before 11 this morning. I don't think

it is ever going to stop. Several hours ago, when they brought the buckets of stone around back, I had hope, but now I've given up on that hope. (It reminds me of all the times I waited to pick my kids up from one activity or another. I'd wait, watch all other kids getting picked up,and I just knew mine were never going to appear. They were always late and always last. In my mind's eye.
   M. was here when they arrived at 10:45. She left to "move her car" out of their way, and she never reappeared. That would be my wish too.
**Drilling stopped about 3:15.  Then the stones shoveled , and now at 4:10 they're mixing the cement. I don't know about the sump, the pump, and the outside drain.
