62.Could only happen when Lorni is not here...

Saturday today Lorni went early Tuesday morning so this is the longest we have been apart  since my bike trip back to the  UK, and yes I am an old sentimental fool and as one of my old friends mentioned on Facebook the other day I don't do being on my own very well, in fact I hate it, Last night it all got to me a bit and I admit to breaking down in tears, I am trying very hard to discipline myself to learn the language but with Lorni here nagging me to keep at it I am finding it easy to just get distracted, Ill get there in the end.

Next problem and it is a biggie I have been moaning for some time about a smell in the kitchen a sort of dampish smell well when I looked up at the ceiling I found the source of the smell, It looks very much like we have a leak in the upstairs bathroom.

Luckily we have some English builder friends so I sent out an SOS for James who cam round that afternoon, took a look upstairs and realised it would be far easier to go through the false kitchen ceiling than to break up the concrete and marble floor of the bathroom I agreed so he made a smallish hole int he ceiling to see where it was coming from and it looks like it's the waste side of the supply so I have left the upstairs bathroom alone for now they are coming around mid week to put things right for me,,,great lads.

So on top of everything I have had to put with the problem of the leak and the bloody awful smell which now that we have a hole in the ceiling is so much worse than before. On the up-side the weather has been good although we have some wet stuff coming tomorrow and the dogs have behaved brilliantly I hope they still will when they are locked in my study with me while the boys remove the ceiling and sort out the leak, And along with my new bright coloured trainers I have went for a little jog today much surprised so I was.

I have spoken to Lorni on numerous occasions over the last 5 days and she is settling in well and is back at the Hospital on Monday. Dam I miss that woman so much and because of the stupidity of the British Public I don't know when she will ab able to come back for a long weekend or holiday I might even have to wait the full 6 months till then end of November, will be completely and utterly bonkers by then if that happens.
