I’m wasting my time at work looking at literally a thousand kinds of peel and stick wallpaper for somewhere in my house. Where? TBD, I just want wallpaper. I mean, look at this intensely green wallpaper with happy suns!

Everyone’s cool wallpaper finds make me wish my bedroom had drywall walls. It doesn’t. My walls are very textured plaster.
LE SIGH.
That’s my tiny complaint.
I managed to paint a rainbow on one part tho so i can’t complain too much.

It’s also possible I want their pillows and healthy pothos plant and cool vase… Most of the walls in my house are white, and while my husband loves it, I think it’s just so so boring.

I’m like “What would Alexandra Gater say to that?”, and coming up with hacks that involve foam core and two sided tape.

Our mirror arrived from structube. The wood is chipped

Is it really badly chipped or minor chip that can be ignored in favor of yelling at the company for free mirror?

high emotions at our attached neighbours again. It has been basically every day for over a week.
I try to extend the same grace as I would to the people I know here who are struggling, but I just am on edge all morning waiting for their dad to start raising his voice yet again, which probably happens every other day. I don’t mind the kids yelling, that’s a normal developmentally appropriate response, I’m just really triggered by men responding back at kids with that tone and volume.
TV: they just left the house, so it should be quiet until lunch at least.

Badly. But I would still enjoy it free without the hassle of a return and waiting for a new one.

Wizard and I are planning to look at buying in the next year and honestly this is one of the things that makes me worry most about buying a condo or apartment.

FWIW our condo was a concrete build and the recent divorcee on the other side of our bedroom wall insisted he never once heard Latte cry and HOOOOBOY was she loud. So some buildings it’s totally fine

They need to include this in their marketing materials. One day when I’m in another phase of life I’d love to live in a condo where someone else takes care of all the outside maintenance but that means sharing walls with people and I’d need it to be that level of sound proofing between units.

Honestly if it weren’t for the pandemic we’d have stayed another year or two at least!

also babies crying is a higher pitch, I think it doesn’t really travel in the same way to people who aren’t their parents.

Snort, let me tell you the story about when we lived in our condo, hearing the downstairs baby screaming while we were, uh, engaged in Fun Adult Times. That place was completely not soundproof.
Not to mention the shared balconies that we could never use, or even open the windows near, because our next door neighbor Smoky McSmokerson was literally ALWAYS sitting out there puffing away.

I just discovered xfinity mobile has been overcharging me by $60 a month for the last ten months! (Yes, I know I should have noticed before nearly an entire year went by, but um, well, I didn’t.) So now I’m on the phone with them and they keep transferring me to different departments and it sucks but thanks being home sick? Because that’s how I had the time and boredom to examine my credit card statement and discover this $600 theft that I have the time to wait on hold to make them give back to me.
