I need a cigarette and a beer!

Today's story provides a good lesson in managing chaos. The house painters arrive early (paint in hand) and begin painting the house. Man - did I want to get my hands on that cool piece of equipment - the power sprayer that is. I am a tool freak both in the garage and kitchen ... but that is another story. They did a nice job painting the house. The 'tile guy' (a very technical term evidently) that has been AWOL for two days - shows up late morning (and I do mean LATE) to finish the work on the bathroom. I swear I want to work this guy's hours! So ... as the day runs on - I keep hearing pounding and sawing in the master bathroom - progress right? NOT! When he takes a break I peek (yes, I do have a voyeuristic instinct to me) and YUCK - I mean damn it looks BAD! What a mess as you will see from the next photos. I guess I have an excuse to stay home ... forever! Otherwise, I will be employed but live in a 'fun house' complete with shifting floors.
