[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 373272, member: 1991"] It's not necessarily. For example, I have a broken window (hypothetically). There is glass all over the ground. I really need to call a glazier but I'm just frozen by the shock of suddenly breaking the window; I can't think clearly. So I begin to do the washing. Or I might pin a sheet over the hole, while still leaving the shards of glass in the frame (to cut the sheet when the wind blows) and shards of glass left on the ground, to cut feet. Maybe I could cover the glass on the ground with some soil, so we don't have to look at the broken glass. It would help if I also put up a sign warning people to not walk in that area in bare feet, but that would require me to be thinking more clearly. Doing something is better than nothing? No, I should call the glazier. I should get the tape measure out and get the dimensions of the window. I should get sample of the glass and measure the thickness. I should be doing more appropriate things all aimed at getting the window repaired, professionally. I should first tidy up, then take stock, then call in the professionals. Marg [/QUOTE]
