party wall

I don't know what springs to your mind when you hear the term "party wall". For me I have an image that involves flimsy paper hats, streamers, and dancing. Sadly, the reality differs and it's to do with a wall dividing properties - and in my case one that is falling into my garden. This is at the back of my house so not my new neighbours with whom I regularly chat, but a pub that I have no dealings with. Except this week, on my long list of "things I'd really not rather do" (along with sort car insurance and will writing) I might have to have dealings.
From the riveting reading last night, it might actually be a retaining wall (that conjures less fun images). And the deeds tell me it's silent which makes things harder. So it's all to do with ascertaining responsibility, negotiating what needs to happen next, with a big need to stay hopeful and kind throughout.

My word for today seems to be awesome. OK, I've not been anywhere near the pub yet, I'm awaiting advice from a pal in the know before I do anything. But I have nonetheless done some great negotiating already today. No paid work yet, maybe it's not going to be a paid work day, but lots of relationship building and rebuilding. Far more fun than walls. I've reached out to a couple of different friends I have been missing lots and not been sure how to rebuild. I've made some new friends and done some negotiating from our different starting points. I've phoned and spoken to people who haven't answered my emails or texts. All of it feels very uplifting. I hope your day is full of as much to party about :)
