21. Lots of rain here too

I'm on the coast in the pacific northwest of California.

That primer/paint job last year has held up good.

I still have a lot of the primer and paint left as I bought a gallon of each from Sherwin-Williams.

Maybe I can fix it up myself if pliers might be able to correct the drainage pipe issue.

Of course the issue is, "Why should I have to fix something that this landscape company did?".

I'm going to try to find another place to take over.

This is pure crap.

It will probably cost more, that is the problem.

After my husband died, I discovered I cannot collect his Social Security so my very low income status is now poverty level.
