Why I Hate Construction--with Video!


Lately I have been feeling trapped...like literally. The whole construction thing the city is doing to replace all the water pipes is starting to be a real pain in the asphalt. Drew's had to drive through people's yards or even park at the elementary school at the end of the block because he couldn't get into our cul-de-sac. I've spent days that I don't work at home because I don't want to blow out a tire on a sharp chunk of whatever or have to navigate around those beastly machines, holes, and dirt hills. Here's a little video to give you a taste of what we're dealing with here, folks. Happy Holidays.

  1. Great little video! Would you say the two boys are somewhat apathetic? I always think it's fun to watch construction crews and count how many are actually working and how many are lollygagging around. Beep. beep. beep.

  2. LOLOL! Drew's reactions! Dang, I would HAAAAATE that. People all up in my "bidness" all.the.time. Hopefully they get finished soon and go on to ruin someone else's life and yard.

  4. Ugh, I hate construction too >< But it's necessary sometimes. Try to think about how nice things will look when it's over. :)
