you guys today was a Monday also, even though it said Tuesday on all the things. Why.

and Gud, you are doing a lot of work, and under stress. You are not screwing up.

Boo. Can you have tasty beverages to dull the pain? I promise I'm going to sit Tuesday down right now and have a stern talk with her. She needs to stop being a brat. It would be nice if she were more like her cousins, Thursday or Friday.

I always feel like it's mememememe all of the time when I post.

Yup, me too. My usual MO is to come here, start what I think is going to be a supportive post, realize that it's 80% me whining about what a fuck up I am, stop, edit out about 70% of that shit, and then hit post.

Burrell, you are ALSO not a fuck-up!

Have an awesome time you guys!

Before I left for Thanksgiving, I did my usual caretaking of the house rounds, including dumping out the bin of the dehumidifier. But guess who forgot to put it back? Did I mention this is an old dehumidifier that doesn't shutoff if the catch bin is removed? And last week, I had a low-grade blah all week, so it wasn't until Friday that I realized the dehumidifier was just dripping onto the basement floor FOR A WEEK.

There was very little actual water under the dehumidifier, because it had all pooled about 6 feet away, thanks to the uneven floor. I spent Friday night soaking up as much water as I could with towels, (did I mention this is the carpeted part of the basement?) and then trained two dehumidifiers on the area. Most of it was dry well within 24 hours. When it was dry, I treated it with an anti-mould spray. But there was a 1 sq foot area that stayed damp for some reason. And I have been super stressed about this for days...I was just imagining a whole colony of mould growing underneath the carpet. So tonight, I put on a mask, made a cut in the carpet near the damp spot. And...no mould! Just a rug and a felt-like pad. (Also, no subfloor.) I am letting dry out, then I'm going to treat it with the spray and carpet tape it back down. It's probably a 25-30 year old rug, so that there's no mould anyway is a miracle.

tl:dr I had a leak, but there is no mould.

It's a relief to realize so many other people think the same way about their posts! I feel so guilty if I forget to acknowledge someone, but it's like I can only hold two names in my head at once.

And sometimes it feels like all I write are non sequitors: ham is salty! I'm bathing in wet water!

No, no, you are all interesting and I am boring.

My usual MO is to come here, start what I think is going to be a supportive post, realize that it's 80% me whining about what a fuck up I am, stop, edit out about 70% of that shit, and then hit post.

If I had to have a twin, I'm glad it's you. That last post? I cut it down by half.

I am clearly super interesting, I do not understand you all.
