Wednesday, December 10, 2003 On one hand, the clouds and rain of the last several days finally moved on after a night of heavy showers, leaving beind a beautiful, crisp December Wednesday -- brilliant sunlight, deep blue skies, air fresh. On the other hand, the construction across the street started up again this morning. On one hand, the noise from the work wasn't as loud and intrusive as it had generally been last week. On the other hand, the work has spread from the building being erected to its already-existing neighbor, scaffolding going up bit by bit through the morning, so that by midday every window here looked out on guys in hard hats toiling away. On one hand, the work that will be done on the new scaffolding will restore the front of a building that could stand some attention. On the other hand, it may go on for some time. Noise, dust, all that. While next door, they're busy tossing up the roof on the final floor, slowly shutting out my view of sky, neighborhood roofs, cutting down light. (Waaaahhhhhh!!!) A good time to go away for a few days, I suspect. Which, by an odd coincidence is just what I'm about to do. Tomorrow. Early. For six days. Off to the U.K. for big bunches of fun. Back next week. Later. rws 2:44 PM [+]
