Renovation

Drills are buzzing, hammers banging; Men on ladders, tool kits hanging. Renovation’s going on and Waiting is the key. Dumpster’s filling, scraps are flying; Things look messy, no denying. Renovation’s taking place For an eternity. Lights are dangling, tarps are blowing; Lists to finish just keep growing. Renovation’s in the works and Not the place to be. Quite a job the crew is facing; So much that requires replacing. Renovation’s at my son’s house - Glad it’s not for me!

Oh, those remodeling jobs are so agonizing. Just went through a couple last year, and hope we don't have any more for quite a while!!

One of the joys of apartment living...when a renovation is needed...you just move. A fun read, Ilene.
