There goes my good sleep, for now

The city has an ordinance that states they must wait till 7 am to start projects (at least in residential areas). So, the efficient workers doing the Foster Sewer Rehabilitation Project in front of my house have decided that setting up for the day can start 5 mins. early. They aren't working, they are preparing.

This is what I heard today (at 6:58)...

beep... beep...beep...beep (big truck backing down the street)

BARK...BARK... BARK... BARK... (Bailey guarding the house)

"Damn, Ron, you knocked over my coffee!"

(second truck) beep... beep...beep... beep... with loud braking to follow.

BARF... (that was Lucy getting sick on the floor. not once, but twice.)

And then the morning angel, my sister! Coffee in one and hand and a boisterous "Helllloooo". That made it all better, thanks Steffie.
