Phew!

Well, I've had a busy morning. Waved BT off this morning as he was going to Toronto on some mission of his own. Three loads of laundry done and TADA that's all the laundry done. Did a huge pile of dishes - well, mostly pots and pans as the kids refuse to wash them or should I say refuse to wash them correctly. Then my super showed up with the handyman to check out my front door and see if they can repair it. I suppose I should tell the saga of the front door. Two years ago when I moved in here Jamie made some errrr inappropriate friends who broke into my house - twice. Once they came through the front window and once they kicked in my door. I repaired the door as well as I could and it's held for the past two years until this weekend. One of the rotten kids that Jamie is hanging around with decided that Jamie needed to be beaten up. Why? Who knows. This boy chased Jamie to the door and proceeded to punch him etc., the whole episode culminating with Jamie being thrown rather heavily at the door. The repairs to the door frame didn't hold - in fact the door frame exploded inwards rather spectacularly. Totally beyond my limited ability to repair soooo I can't lock my door at all. The super and the handyman are coming back tomorrow to do the repair thank god. I'm gonna have to lock up the cats though, Rascal has taken a sudden interest in the great outdoors and bolts out the door at every opportunity even though once he's out there he just cowers under the patio furniture. Stupid cat. Shadow is just as daft and he'll be out the door after Rascal if given half a chance.
