I hate my layout

[joefryfry]

I was pretty good at laying HO track. This is my first N layout and my track laying wasn't real great. Now my trains derail and uncouple. The thing is that my layout is so small, that replacing any sections would be about replacing the whole thing. My wife gets on me for never finishing any layouts. I'm ready to tear this layout apart and start a simpler plan. Should I try to fix my issues, or start over? Its tough to work a layout I hate. Also, I have my flex track and turnout glued down and ballasted with diluted white glue and woodland scenics ballast. Are there any tricks to salvaging the track and getting it back up without ruining it?
