So we hired a contractor to remove the wallpaper and paint,
as well as repair the water damage and paint the ceiling in our bedroom. The
impetus for this whole thing was the water damage that insurance was paying
for, so we decided to pull the trigger and get the walls done as well. They only painted where they primed on the
ceiling (kinda). I complained so the owner sent a couple of guys out to
"fix" it. They half assed it again, and there are paint drips/smears
all over my hardwood floors, they didn't cut in, and you can see where they
missed spots.
Please note that even though we've asked multiple times,
the owner hasn't actually come out to inspect the work his guys did. He offered
to send them back out, assured me that the paint will come off the floors
(great, you gonna come do that???), and told me how he's losing money on this
job.
I guess we will spend our holiday weekend trying to fix
this crap so we can move back into our bedroom. I just don't really want the
crew back given the mess they've already made on the floor, you know?
Yesterday everything was "poo poo". It kind of became a joke, but really, I felt
like I walked around all day with a cloud over my head. I don't like feeling that way - I have a lot
to be grateful for. But some days the
stress of so many things (house not selling, T's unemployment on the heels of
my own), everyday frustrations, etc. just leave me feeling overwhelmed.
I just remind myself it's okay to have those days but to
remember that isn't every day.
