What goes round comes round

Just 2 months ago, our house was under renovation. The plight of our neighbours having to suffer through the days of constant hacking and drilling hasn't been fully amplified till personal experience comes into play. I think the renovation works right below me is driving my sanity away. Even Sushi jumps at the vibrations that travel upwards by the hacking. She looks as if she is permanently having spasms as each hacking continues, and my heart thumps inconsistently. The hacking has stopped, but not for long, tomorrow it begins, again.
