Withdrawal symptoms

I haven't done any sewing for a couple of weeks now and I am getting withdrawal symptoms. The reason is we are having some home improvements done and all the dining room furniture is stacked in my sewing room, anyway I don't want to sit sewing when there are workmen in the house causing lots of dust........we are having patio doors put in the dining room.
I hope the rain eases a bit this week, it has been horrendous, the ground is saturated.....anyway I hope it eases because the builder is getting nowhere fast with the front porch and the plumber won't start with the new boiler until the builder is finished.......ugh......I hate the house being upset, not to mention having to get up early to try and make myself look presentable first thing in the morning, which is no mean feat I can tell you.
