inulroIt has been an interesting week. I didn't know it was possible to be this exhausted and still function. By Tuesday it was obvious I wasn't going to make it to the end of the week, so I have started my holiday today. I meant to do all sorts of constructive things, which has turned into one load of laundry.
I was feeling poo anyway, and as I was taking the laundry out of the washing machine, I heard the unmistakable sound of something dripping in the bathroom. Our roof has sprung a leak. It's a very slow leak, & trickling down a wall so I can't put a bowl out to catch the water. Interestingly, after I called Jason, called the insurance people & then got Jason to call the insurance people (my name isn't on the policy. Or, wasn't. It is now. Kind of dumb since I'm home more often), it seems to have stopped leaking, even though it has been raining even harder at times. Which leads me to wonder how long this has been going on. It's right next to the shower, so any excess water I might have stepped in would have been blamed on us dripping after we get out of the shower.
I've been out to have a look at the roof & I can't see anything wrong. It's unlikely we can get it fixed before we go away, but it's supposed to be cold & dry while we're away, plus it's on the extension rather than the main part of the house, and the bathroom is mainly tiled anyway, so it shouldn't sustain too much damage in a week.
I can't sleep, and I'm not wide enough awake to do anything else. Most annoying.
