So far, not so good.

So the driveway guys are supposed to come at 9am. No problem, I'll be long gone by then. Instead, they come at 7:30am. And the guy comes to the door and I ask him if he can wait a few minutes because I'll be leaving for work. He says sure fine. So then I get out onto the driveway and they've pulled their truck and their bulldozer up and are already tearing up the driveway and they've left this tiny little hole for me to get out of. Now I'm not the best of drivers, but I'm usually ok when I'm going forward. I just suck at going backwards, so I try to avoid it whenever possible. So in trying to back up and not hit their stupid truck I wind up scraping up against the poor dogwood tree and probably killing some plants in the process. So I pull forward and the worker guys have noticed and are now pulling their truck further up to open some space for me which is nice of them, but they're also directing me around all pull up this way go back that way. And I have a hard enough time backing up without an audience let alone a backseat driving audience. And maybe, just maybe I might have been able to do it if I had had time to think about it and plan it out. But I'm already rattled by practically hitting the tree, so instead I'm going all over the place and they're looking at me like I'm a freak and if they had just come when they frelling said they would come this never would have happened.
