This sounds like a Dwarf Fortess bug explanation as to why they're not fixing their dwellings lol.

My issue is by the time I get around to doing it, my list has grown, so I knock out the new items first, then never get around to the outstanding items.
My kitchen and bathrooms are a wreck.
11 0 ReplyKitchen and bathroom have priority on my list. Anything that can rot must be cleaned first

There's a Finnish saying "Hyvän sään aikana" which translates to "When the weather is good". Fits this very well 😂

That's why I bought a tarp. I know it's gonna take me a couple years to get round to fixing the roof but I don't want the rafters etc to rot in the meantime so I'ma chuck a big ol' tarp on top and call it good until I can get my mind to hyperfixate on fixing it.
15 0 ReplyAh yes, I am too familiar with the temporary-permanent solution approach.
18 0 ReplyYou're really just creating a bunch of tarp debt.
8 0 ReplySounds like my neighbor a couple of doors down. I recently learned their house is not in fact abandoned. Extremely weathered tarps over damaged sections of roof, trees growing through the wooden back porch, trees and overgrowth throughout the entire yard etc. I have a feeling whenever they pass/move away that house will either sit empty for a very long time or be torn down
