    Hi Toolbelt expert,

    Thank you for asking after me. No the loo has not arrived yet, I am wondering if they are assembling it piece by piece and then undoing it again. I know I will have to get after them as well. I will post on a separate thread. Again thanks for asking.

    Hi All,

    It’s been a bit crazy around here and very hot. I also have been working a lot of OT. 

    Sorry for the radio silence. My husband has a new thing: he informs me he is going to bed every five minutes. I reply no you are not. I know this is pointless in my Kafkaesque life but it simulates a form of conversation. 

    The good thing is that he is no longer pooing in the sink. Or very seldom.. I have eliminated almost all dairy from his diet and that has improved things somewhat. He will pee in the sink if I don’t redirect him. I find I don’t get too upset anymore, I guess I am just too tired. 

    I did wake up this morning and found out he had opened up a can of cat food. Luckily he stopped there. I have started hiding the frying pan so he can’t cook anything.
