The state of my street

Out street's been under construction since November - and will be until the end of March. Just in time for crutches!

I've had to park on side streets and slide though mud to and from my car.

That's the edge of my car on the far right - we were allowed to park on the street over Christmas! 

See my crutch walking through this mess?

But on the bright side, when it's all done, we will actually have drainage on our street, and our pothole problem should be fixed (there's one that has flattened many a tire a block away). So as New Orleans streets go, we'll be on one of the nicer ones!
