The Holdup

This is nothing so exciting as, say, a stagecoach holdup.  Instead, I am waiting restlessly for the repairmen to return and fix the household heater.  While we heat the house almost exclusively with a wood-burning stove, we want to sell our house, and it won't do if there's no heater.

Thus, I am at home when I really wish I was at work, making some money.  After all, we recently learned that our house could sell for a good profit.  To sell it for an even better profit, we need to replace flooring in two additional rooms.  This requires money, which I am not producing at this time because I am waiting for the repairman to come back.  It's a circular situation that will drive me crazy if I think about it for too long.
