Or if the cause of damage is city trees. Which is largely the problem here.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
The damage to my sidewalk is from city trees, but I think I would still need to pay for it.

That is adorbs! I haven't seen the series, but I read enough of the books to understand.

City code actually says explicitly that if their trees (=betwixt sidewalk and street,which is considered their property,) their problem. However, my neighbors have been calling FOR YEARS about the sidewalks and no response. Figure this is part of a larger plan.
You aren't even supposed to privately prune their trees, city job. Took Anna 3 years before the city pruned our tree. (Now we have a standing call-every-year, keep us in whatever queue, but we also prune it ourselves so it doesn't hang over our porch roofs.)

The only thing between our sidewalk and the street is gutter.

Yeah, I have this [link] . And City is very invested in its tree cover (unless you have corporate bribes, but anyway.)

I suspect my neighborhood lost that bit sometime in the past when streets were widened to be two-way. They're still pretty narrow. Good thing we have parks.
Then again, we don't have squirrels.
I'm thinking I want to whip up a baby blanket for my co-worker who is going on maternity leave November-ish, so I took a peek at my yarn stash and it is TINY. I must have gotten rid of a lot at some point is all I can figure. Or I've hidden the bulk of it from myself somehow. Can't rule that out.
