As for around the house….few hours in the sun getting rid of the top layer of grass for the above ground pool. Last time we laid the pool on grass it smelled like death for a month once we removed the pool. Fence goes in tomorrow / Monday and then starting the setup.

My buddy at work was renting A SINGLE BEDROOM!!!! For $1000/month….no private bathroom, no private kitchen….nothing. 8 bedrooms in that single house each renting for 1k/month. Owner has 8 more houses with similar layouts…. Owner bought the properties back in the 90s and early 00s….making bank now.

Ugh….RIP

This is not true. Hand slaughtered. No prayers. No videos.

Staying away from that. I’m still reeling from the run up during the GME squeeze.

Hot dogs get my vote

Here we go….time to finish what I’ve been dreading finishing…vertical grout. Have tried using the grout bag on multiple occasions and can’t get it right. So pointing it the horrible way. I need a drink.
