I’m currently having my drive relaid. As part of that I’ve had to have the large driveway gates removed while this is happening. Due to the layout this means that my floor to ceiling kitchen window is currently exposed to the road so whenever I’m in my kitchen the neighbours and any passing pedestrians/ cars can see right into my kitchen. It’s only for a couple of weeks and it hasn’t really bothered me.
Chatting to the main builder today as he was giving me an update. He said that he was hoping that he’d be able to get the gates back on at the beginning of next week. I replied that would be great and that the neighbours and anyone walking into town was probably sick to death of seeing me making breakfast in my pyjamas. Builder’s assistant then piped up with “yeah, and the rest” and laughed and main builder sniggered and gave his assistant a sort of half joking/ half warning look. I just sort of smiled and then went inside but I’ve spent the rest of the day worrying about what he meant.
I’m never inappropriately dressed when I’m in my kitchen. I’m in my dressing gown with messy hair and no make up when I make breakfast in the morning but that’s as bad as it gets. Now I’m paranoid that I’ve been picking my nose or something when I’ve forgotten I was overlooked.
Do you think it was just a harmless comment? I don’t understand why he’d make it unless he thought I’d been doing something unacceptable.
