It's calming down - calling myself out publically as a uptight mundane bore helped snap me out of the funk. I'm now on the fourth attempt to get a range cooker installed after dodgey carpentry, dodgey electrics and bad installation advice and have had the cooker sitting in my living room for about 2-3 weeks now but I'm chill about it all now because the main thing is that the house will be safer after the work. I just need to cut the lawn, trim the hedge and get some kind of anchor for the bikes in the work shed.
All the boiler chat above though has made me want to hold back £3.5k of house money for when ours packs in so that has been useful too.

Exhausting to catch up with these super active threads with long posts about complicated issues after a few weeks! Enjoyed everyone's input about long hellish commutes, I agree that it's a soul destroying phenomenon and should be avoided whenever possible.
@youramericanlover also feel your thoughts:
How's it going? I find it's on and off for me, I'll get caught up in something and go all anal about details and materials and money etc, followed by periods of 'ah fuck it where's the beer and TV, I hate modern humanity and the pointless race to middle class perfection'.
I'm great at parties
