room update of sorts

Yesterday the contractor for the HOA came by to look at my balcony that's been looking rough since *checks notes* September. But yesterday morning it was also POURING for maybe half an hour or so and I heard something strange, like water inside. Yes indeedy, the front door has a leak from the roof above it. Luckily, that's something also covered by the HOA, so I fired off an email to the management company and he added it to the contractor's list of things to check. Not super looking forward to the balcony work as that'll literally be right outside my room (ugh!) but I would like having use of my balcony at some point. He said that they'd be building the wall with a gap at the bottom so the leaves could be more easily swept off the balcony which is nice, because as it is, it involves me having to peer over the side to make sure no one's down there, and then scoop up armfulls of leaves and stuff. Or, y'know, use a dustpan to do the same thing. He also confirmed my thought that the floor was solid, so I don't have to worry as much about that, assuming they fix it sooner rather than later.



Since I mentioned the room, let's look at the chaos that is my ongoing room revamp as I have a thought pinging in my brain but I need to work it out.

Some people are minimalists. I... clearly am not.
