Watched this van life video, and now I want to install a wood stove in the back of my vehicle, LOL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBR3S393WwA

As I suspected, we're stalled out (now one week delay, unclear how much longer) in our disaster remodeling because the contractor failed to order the carpet early enough. In chess, we would call them a one-move-ahead player (ie only able to look at the move they are on), versus a 3-4 move ahead player (anticipating possible issues/problems ahead of time). #disasterremodeling #planning #projectmanagement

Week 1: "Can you provide carpet samples so we can pick out the color/carpet?" (no reply)

(repeat every week for 6 weeks)

Two weeks ago: Carpet samples FINALLY show up, finally... contractor didn't tell me, but I saw them there, so I texted the color/carpet choice.

Late last week: "We just ordered and are waiting for carpet before we can do more work."

I'm debating whether to make a real thumbnail for this video, or just keep the one YouTube chose for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bj9amtYrwv0

Sigh, fixing a lousy attic hatch in the house and found a roof truss with termite damage. (though... not surprising, 60-80% of homes in Southern California have termite infestations, the last time I checked). #termites #homerepair

Great, these guys either screwed through or hammered a hole in my plumbing, new leak. #plumbingdisaster

Drat, there is more than one leaking toilet flap in the house I am staying in. (One fixed... do I just buy a couple of more and get this over with?) #home #repair

Just was told to clean the house up here before Tuesday (staying elsewhere due to a plumbing disaster) because the housekeeper is coming Tuesday. I guess I need to vacuum and sweep the house, as well as clean the countertops 🤔
