Oh, I look forward to the pictures!
We had the hammering and sawing this morning too, at last. The workers stayed away for 10 DAYS because that is how long they read the virus can hang around, despite them working outside and us being inside. And negative. Anyway, they are back again today, but it will be raining all afternoon so the 2 hours they were here this morning will be it for the day. At last they are paid by the hour? Frustrating, but I'm trying to stay chill about the things I can't control.
Happy belated birthday, Erika!
Your construction workers are vastly more cautious about Covid than any tradesmen I've been around here, Laura.
They are super paranoid. They didn't work for the last couple years pretty much at all unless it was an unoccupied property. They are neighbors and friends, so I am more patient than I would be normally. All said, I have more understanding for being overly cautious than for the idiots who haven't shown any caution or concern.
Timelies all!
Tired and stressed, as usual.
Yeah, the caution thing is really variable. My landlord’s favorite plumber basically quit residential work because he got sick of clients hovering over his shoulder without masks—in late 2020. My car mechanics are all mask-schmask.
Most of my handimen and tradefolk of various sorts - and there’ve been A LOT this year [cries] - have been actually very good about it. The Wisconsin ones less so but most of that work has been outside.
What’s a good charity to help Puerto Rico right now?
Tom I am not 100%sure the best places to donate but I came across an article and it links to Puerto Rico based organizations and others that have been working in Puerto Rico before.

There us also World Central Kitchen . Here is a tweet from them. [link]
They were there for Hurricane Maria and the earthquakes as well so they have been continuing work there and other islands to help.
