it's what i wanted i just didn't think it would be so hard. i hate that feeling when it's too quiet and there's so much noise in your head! i'm going to the laundromat to drown it out. i'm so glad i have my own thread on this sandbox for my encouragement.

the guy says he will do a new roof but won't fix any other thing. i'm not going to walk away over less than $1,000 in mainly non-urgent repairs and he knows it. so i'll take my new roof and just quietly stew.
― spite n ease (harbl), Saturday, 20 July 2013 02:08 (ten years ago) link
you'll be stewing under a new roof yes? that's wonderfullll!!!!
― lxy, Saturday, 20 July 2013 14:18 (ten years ago) link
injustice is injust, but roofs are good. and now it won't rain on your head!
― mookieproof, Sunday, 21 July 2013 03:40 (ten years ago) link
I am so excited for you, harbl!
― tehresa, Sunday, 21 July 2013 14:07 (ten years ago) link
i'm excited now too. the stuff he won't fix is not a big deal, the house is super old. i need to think about movers. also i need advice what to plant in the box in front. it's about 4 square feet and has an awkward rose bush in it and that's it. i want kind of a rain garden type thing that doesn't require much weeding.
― spite n ease (harbl), Sunday, 21 July 2013 16:34 (ten years ago) link
i am v much in love with the idea of awkward roses come springtime tbh

i stopped by to take a picture of it to show my mom because i asked for gardening advice. there are a couple other awkward plants there that i hadn't even noticed.

i have to tell you this funny cute story
i like to get mail from the jail and read other people's mail. it's like a compulsion i have to read other people's mail they get. i don't know what it is. i like the different kinds of handwriting and bizarre ideas and funny grammar. anyway today i got three letters in one envelope. they were all clearly written by the same person but they were signed with spanish names. each one was asking for the same thing in slightly different words, like please help me i want to plead guilty but i have written letters to your office and no one responds. so having gotten no response from the district court office somehow they got my name and had someone write letters to me for them. or it's possible it's one of my clients at the jail helping some people who can't speak english.

i gave up on the bed. i just put the mattress on the ground in the middle of the frame. my cat is so skeptical of this house. she hid behind my coffee maker on the counter. i said "oh buddy! it's ok!"

i think i ruined the bed. this diagram is so wrong and it made me make a really big mistake. i got some pliers so i'm going to try to pull these pegs out.
