Can I have my house back now?

Granted, all this work was very much needed, but I'm getting sick of having people work on the house.

For the past week, we've had the siding replaced.  They also put up insulation (because there was none!), which meant LOTS of banging on our walls, from 7:30am to 5pm, every day.  Which meant, no nap for the little guy.  But, it did mean a much warmer house.

We also had someone clean and inspect our furnace, which wasn't bad, but he was dirty and the house kinda smelled like heating oil after he left.

Today, a plumber will be here, for who knows what.  Hubby set this appointment up.  And he'll be here at 5pm, just when the siding guys leave.

*sigh* I know old houses need work, but just once I'd like to have some quiet (with two preschoolers, ha, fat chance) and some privacy.  I had to wake up with Hubby just to get a shower in before the siding guys set up camp in our backyard... which is where the bathroom faces.  I can only imagine getting out of the shower and seeing several men outside the window.
