All I want for Xmas is to be bored and alone for a few days

[Cleo]

Normally I would not want to be alone over the holidays but this year has left me craving peace and solitude.

Just spent the last few months having breakfast with carpenter, masons, and other craft people. All of them have been very nice but it gets old real fast having workers in your house all the time.

Then just as things are nearing completion two different people that I used to date show up asking for a place to stay. What is even worse is they are getting jealous of each other and giving me attitude because I don't want either of them anymore.

Today I'm waiting for the granite workers who will also be here on Tuesday also I'm told. I still have a few more days of carpenters and mason people to look forward to in January.

I think I need a vacation from people for a few days.
