We are stubborn and never give up, these are qualities that Peter and I have in common. But sometimes things can get tough, of course, and then you get that feeling. That you are in over your head.
Right now, stress levels are high, sleep deprivation is physically felt in the body and the heat is impossible to escape. We are trying to plan effectively, but when you are for stressed, everything goes wrong instead ...
A bit heavy at the moment
Peter dropped a can of white paint over the black tyre. When we went to repair the damage by repainting, it turned out that we had bought the wrong colour ... glossy instead of matt. Even more stress, of course, and my migraine arrived like a letter in the post.
I've been passed out and vomiting for 24 hours. As the stress builds and Peter gets even more on his shoulders ... Yes, we will come out alive on the other side. We always do. Just a bit heavy right now.
Lots of other stuff and some concrete says:
I don't think you are in over your head! You are so clever.
It will be so nice, so nice! Nice with the grey sea mist colour. And nice with thicker insulation.
But I understand how you feel. Sometimes it's just too much. Imagine when you can launch and move back in!
Hugs from Agneta

It might be worth taking a break from the hard work. But at the same time, you want to be done as soon as possible....Stubbornness and never giving up are qualities that are essential to the work you do.
I hope the migraine goes away and that you feel better.
Many hugs of strength to you both.

Yes, I'm sure you'll come out stronger after this renovation, but I can't help but feel incredibly sorry for you.
Whilst I love this beautiful weather, I'm sure you're totally sick of the heat. Not the sun I guess, because it dries colours - I guess.
Hope things go better for you tomorrow and the rest of the project!

Agneta, thanks for the encouragement! I'm sure you're right, and it will be fine. But there will be times when it's hard.
Ditte, a break sometimes is good, but the stress is in your body anyway. But this is a period, and it's hard to blame anyone else....

BP, this is actually completely self-selected, so we're not complaining! But you have your periods when they are heavy... We also like the weather, but it is better suited for lazy days!

An accident rarely comes alone....so they say! Hope your luck changes now so you can have a calmer time. Not easy to both work and think right in this heat. We like +20-23gr better, now you can not do much during the hot time of the day, must wait until the evening. Hope you get better and can give a helping hand to Peter when needed. Hugs

Warm thoughts! Hope you can get some rest soon! And planned... Not because of a migraine...
