Mostly bad
Good: We live down a long driveway which we share with three other houses. It's lovely being that far back from a very busy road because it's relatively quiet and peaceful in the trees and the cats are safe.
Bad: The driveway has huge potholes. And the people we all booked to reseal it at some point during the last three sunny and dry weeks didn't.
Good: They showed up this week.
Bad: When it was raining.
Worse: And promptly cut into the neighbours' water main.
Bad: The foreman was ill yesterday so they didn't work.
Worrying: We have to park on a very busy road for several days, or down the hill in a quiet cul-de-sac and walk up an alleyway in the dark which I'm not prepared to do.
Good: A friend from Australia is coming to stay at the end of next week.
Bad: She's bringing her two little girls which is scaring the hell out of me.
Also bad: The taps in the guest bathroom don't work properly. You have to make 3 or 4 complete turns, then the bastards gush on so hard, water goes everywhere.
Good: I found a local plumber who said he can come tomorrow.
Bad: He can't, because our driveway is up.
I'm not even going to tell you about the crap new system management forced IT to put in at work. Sigh. I want something to go right.

This weekend will be fraught as I have to do all the tidying up and cleaning then as I have so little time during the week. :-( Oh, yeah, and vote!
