I'm so pissed off!

I've been trying to hold this garage sale for weeks!!!! Applied for permission weeks ago. Got the garage sale pile in the kitchen.

But we're still pending this and that. I just intend to sell plates and books and candles and jugs and clothes!!! Yet another reason for owning your own place: because we rent, we thought it would be courteous to ask the neighbours if it was going to bother them. We were just BEING NICE. Everybody else probably couldn't care less. But now we're caught up in this stupid dialogue between an inept body corporate and owners of the VERY SHORT DRIVEWAY about accident insurance in case someone falls and breaks his leg or a 3cm lizard zaps someone with a light saber using 3 AA batteries stolen from next door.

I mean, come on! I just want to recover a few dollars from some unwanted items to be able to buy more nappies for my baby! How complicated can that get?? Not like I'm opening a store or have a business. It's just for 5 hours. I do all the hard yards. The husband helps out. Not asking for anyone else's help. How damn hard is that?? What's the whole hold up problem?

I swear, some people just love making things hard for other folk to live. When I'm retired and old, please please please don't let me become this way.
