Wednesday is here and my studio isn't

Well I said Wednesday would be the day for getting my studio up and running well unfortunately I didn't look at the weather report when I wrote that and it stormed all day -hail, thunder, lightning, rain! ERRRR....
On a brighter note, I had my first international sale on Etsy.
Well I wrote the above paragraph on Wednesday and left it in my draft folder. So now its Saturday night. My sweetie is sprawled out on the couch watching the Sharks (hockey). Being on the East coast now he records all his west coast hockey games. So here we are its late, the kids are in bed and asleep and I'm spent! Emotionally and physically drained. I should be ecstatic or the very least relieved. Why? My ventilation is finally together and complete ! I haven't tested it yet and I suspect that is why I'm holding back the champagne. My sweet sweet husband spent a good part of the day on the roof putting up a vent cap - no he's never done this before and even though he did a very thorough job he will worry about it leaking until the day we move out. What was I doing? I was hunched over, balancing myself on the rafters in the attic so as not to go through the ceiling. And at the same time I was trying my damnest to connect ducting from the cap to the blower and I just couldn't get it to work. After cutting up my hands and getting snappy with Scott I finally had to just cry. Being the sweetie that Scott is he came to my rescue and finished the job for me. So now he's watching the hockey game and he's got the whole coach to himself and he doesn't even have to feel bad for it. Well I've eaten way to many cherry cream filled hershey kisses and a too big glass of wine.
Sleep is needed and a fresh perspective. I may even finally light my torch tomorrow.
