I'm sorry this is so fraught, Julie.

Poor Zoe. Glad she's home and mending.

We are having an epic storm right now and suddenly there is a leak between the front porch and the house. Unprecedented! It's always something with a house.

Huge storm. Two buckets deployed upstairs. Wall weeping. At least I got to swim at my Y & finish? The thunder started just as I left the building.

Which is why I want a condo or an apartment, where someone else has to deal with the structure.

Unironic xpost.

This is an intermittent leak that I think just turned full blown.

That is definitely an appeal to that. I do love my house dearly, though.

More's coming, looks like. From the south this time.

Love my house, hate my roofer. (This leak has been 'fixed' twice.)

So over the constant rudeness.

It is cold comfort to think that one day Mac may have a teenager of his own and he will call you to apologize for being such a teenage turd burger.

NOW. The flash flood NWS alert blows up on my phone. Flash flood, you don't say.....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Rain ~ma, people!

Does this bonobo freelance? Do you have her email?

My townhouse feels like a decent compromise between a house and a condo. Just ignore the new windows.
