The disappointments you described is smart fries compared to the long term goal and life in general.

@John Mitchell sure man, let’s meet up Fri at 11.

We switched over to plastic wine glasses.

Oh and a kicker, every single window in house and garage has some type of cardboard or plastic blocking the window..it looks ridiculous but they obviously want to hide something.. 

It's easy to mess up.HD has those plastic shower corners with sliding doors.

Reach out to, @Mark Fries, TOP Contractor in the area..

The absentee landlord next store assign 3 garbage pails for each of the 3 tenants, one for regular garbage, one of paper, and one for plastics.

A lesson from a $700 water bill from a 3 year old toilet.Buy decent faucets, the cheapest ones fail quickly.Standardize your paint color and use a professional paint store, not a big box store that makes it differently every time.Use plastic flooring products. 

@Mark Fries What do you do when Life gives you lemons?

. $1000, $2500, $5000, these numbers are small fry in the long run.
