Electricians are here and are working in the unfinished attic over my head. I keep imaging dust raining down, or worse. My cat has developed a 1000 yard stare probably picturing 180lb squirrels walking across our rafters.

We’ve also hit out first unexpected snag. Hopefully first and only.

Super nice guys though, I feel bad for how often they keep getting hurt in my imagination.

    Get one of those class room skeletons to shove up there for next time they visit.

      That won’t do much. You have to put a hornet nest prop(or inactive specimen) or a realistic stuffed raccoon right near the entrance to the attic that is in a defensive pose.

      I almost fell off a ladder when I pushed up the hatch and my flashlight swept across a dummy hornet nest meant to dissuade actual hornets from nesting. I had a great laugh when I went to get a photo of the giant “hornet nest” to show the client and came to understand the reality.
