Unfortunately both actually have yuccas, but the other place has less of them, and they are tucked away down the side of the house.
I was unsuccessful in my rental application. โน๏ธ
I've booked an inspection of another one which looks ok, but the photos on the website are the same photos it was sold with 7 years ago.
There is another maybe property which looks a bit too good for the price and has been listed for a while, so I am a bit sus about that one. It also has a patch of fake grass in bad condition and a number of very large yuccas.
Just did another botched job of reversing into a parking space. I'm really stuffing up the initial angle. I'm sure I'll get better eventually, but at the moment it is pretty nerve wracking.
At least it is a short week, and next week even shorter.
That was always so painful. Enduring extreme boredom was however the most useful skill I learned in school. I suspect I would have been better served by learning to actively work to achieve things instead, but that was generally discouraged.
Well, the worst was one who enjoyed failiing people, so would set tests that were really hard to pass. And then he would do things like mark you wrong on things you got right just to make sure you got a fail.
One had a habit of telling you your draft work was great and then failing you on the final copy. She did that to a couple of students I know on a compulsory project for a compulsory VCE subject that meant they had to repeat Year 12. I had her for Year 11 psychology, a subject which was not offered until enough students lobbied for it that they changed the curriculum. Over half that enthusiastic class dropped it after the first semester with her teaching.
Some of it was just general contempt for us as people - like making us stay out in the rain during class breaks because they didn't want the hassle of declaring it a "wet day" which allowed us to use classrooms on breaks.
Some were just incompetent, like the accounting teacher that could only set work from the book and mark it against a scoring guide but didn't actually understand the material in the slightest.
The best teachers I had were what I would consider should be the minimum standard - they taught coherently and didn't seem to actually hate the students.
I would have been happy if they just stopped trying to make the experience worse.
Air conditioner has been aquired, but I will wait until tomorrow to wrestle it in from the car & plug it in etc. It looks in great nic, has all the bits and has even been stored with a dust cover on. Seller was a nice older guy who is getting rid of stuff in preparation for moving to Japan later this year.
I got my angles all wrong reversing into the driveway when I got home and needed to make multiple attempts before I got in. Fortunately there was no traffic, and everyone in the area is used to watching inept drivers try to master basic parking maneuvers as we are in a license testing area.
It's a problem with multi-tasking. So much brain power used in fake vanilla vigilence there is not enough left to track the threads properly.
That's why I have a very low tolerance policy for anything that gives me weird vibes. I'm sure I disregard a lot of people that would have been legit sales but it's not worth the risk that someone who strikes a wrong chord will escalate into that.
Try a third coffee, that will have you so motivated you'll be bouncing off the walls.

That might be the only catch with this one too - maybe walking distance to the scrap metal yard is not a drawcard?
