I need some construction work done on my house and a local company had said they would do it and gave me a date for two weeks ago. The night before, they emailed me last thing to say they couldn't come (owing to a job elsewhere taking longer than expected) and that they would come this Monday instead. A man from the company came to take some measurements this morning. Then this afternoon I got an email from the company cancelling yet again owing to another job elsewhere, but this time saying that if I want the work doing without any more delays, to look for a different company as they can't guarantee when they can come. I am feeling so hopeless about the whole issue and being completely on my own makes it worse as it doesn't affect anyone else, so I have no real support or backup. I can't talk about it with most people as they aren't really interested. One thing I hate about being alone is that I have to do everything myself and arrange everything myself, that there is no one to 'take the reins' even for a while, to give me a break. I could email the company and say that they can come when they are able to, but then I could be waiting for ever.
