Trivial Negative things in your life...
OK. Let's hear all the trivial stuff that you wouldn't bother sharing. The stuff that is realistic but not important nor effects your countenance.
-Front door knob fell off days ago and I still haven't found the superglue. Why? Garage is full of building materials. No matter, you can grip the appendage left with a pincer grip.
-Wife's front bumper loose and cracked.
-Drainage channels rather poor in the front
-Shower screen cracked - and no plan to change it as it can wait for the rest of the bathroom.
-Part of backyard overgrown
-Firewood unsplit
-Veggie garden in disarray
-Laundry needs new cupboards
-I have a spare tyre lying around in the front somewhere
-An old engine block down the back
-A shed blew over the fence in a storm
And the blame for most of it can be laid squarely at the foot of my 6 month old son. They're all off soon for a while so I can catch myself up.

No - I'll break him into all that over his school years. It's all my fault. Once I get my hours back and daylight saving....

Re: Trivial Negative things in your life...
"Engine warning light" has been on in the car for..... 10 months now... Perhaps its time to get the car serviced? (oh and replace the tyre that recently got stabbed by a pair of scissors - so I can put the spare back and go back to having 4 matching wheels instead of three alloys and one black steel rim)!
...and isnt it time I rebuilt the media centre with Win7 (I have a disk waiting to go)? I'm repeatedly told how its much 'cleaner' and works better (and I *do* have an annoying problem playing back .mkv files at the moment). Never seems to be a good time to get around to these things... oh and I need to get some cable trunking to actually wire in the rear speakers. I've been running on 2.0 instead of 5.1 for months now!

The fingernails on both of my index fingers are very different in size.

One of the hubcaps on the car won't fit properly since I forced it off changing a tyre
My underpants are a disgrace to mankind and the whole collection (3 of) needs renewing

There's a mountain of washing to put away.
And an even bigger pile of washing to hang to dry.
A spotlight has blown in the kitchen.
The toddler tornado has blown in again and the place looks like Hamleys on sale day. For a change.
The laptop is being temperamental and had decided that My Documents is no longer working.
I need to buy some bigger gym clothes - everything is getting too tight. But I just look fat, rather than pregnant.
