A sad day

Today was a sad day; a tough day as well. I was unwell pretty much all day and Louise was trying to give birth which was Angela's focus. Unfortunately one pup was still born and when I took Louise to the vet he said that there were no more puppies in her so we lost her one and only pup. Very sad indeed.

We did have the workmen in, they were a little late as they went to the shop for some bits. Bekir started off as planned by fitting the pipes along the back wall in the crawl space while Halil got stuck into more plastering. With the electrics done Bekir then applied the final skim to the floor inside that crawl space, which will now be ready for carpet. Louise was try her best, as I've said, but was not finding it easy - the puppy was too big and the sack burst a long time before she could push it free, which actually only happened in the end because Bekir helped. As you can tell, I am very sad about this. The rest of the day for the men was plastering and then getting started clearing old cement off the walls up the stairs.

So there it is; there's no men tomorrow so back on Monday I hope. Thanks for reading.
