Ceiling update

[teaforlupin]

Thank you all for your good wishes following our surprise ceiling reversal yesterday!!!!!!!! you guys are the best <3

Make-safe builder guy reckons nothing structural has been damaged, just the plaster from the storm-related leak; he's patching things up a bit so maybe I won't have a heart attack everytime I catch a glimpse of the skeleton of the house #yikes

Poor Pip was scared to sleep last night in case the ceiling in his room came down ,so Jude set him up a pop-up tent with a mattress in it and his favourite toys so that he could feel safe <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Conversely the cats were SUPREMELY unbothered by the presence of Piles Of Rubble strewn across the kitchen, snoofed at them and calmly lay down in all their usual spots irrespective of whether they were covered in chunks of plaster or not, because they have a Routine, dammit, so there you go

sldkfjsdkljf just catching up on this latest update in the ceiling saga. glad you're all safe and I hope the house gets put back to rights soon!!

There will be plywood tomorrow! Which will be great because then the kitchen might stop smelling of dust and mould and little bits of plaster will no longer be sifting down whenever someone walks up the stairs! Unthought-of luxury!

Omg!! I missed this when you posted about it, but YIKES! I'm glad everyone's okay and nothing too major was damaged. Still, though!!

[teaforlupin]

Yeah, definitely not the kind of thing one is ever a) expecting or b) hoping for o.O

Cats: weapons-grade weirdos in just about every scenario

Ahaha, the cats! They will not be told what to do by a mere ceiling collapsing!
Keeping all available appendages crossed for you guys!

Yikes! Hope the repairs go well and that you are all back to rights soon. Cats are interesting creatures. Sounds like yours are very adaptable. :)
