Some do-gooder asshole came up to me to ask me what I'm doing with my mango tree cuttings. He tried to talk me into paying for removal. It turns out that the city offers free removal. In fact, so many cities need removal that they're saying it will take months to clear. Cities are fighting over who pays more for debris removal trucks.
In a panicked desperation during hurricane preparation, I flipped my extremely heavy outdoor table upside down. It's too heavy for me to lift and bring inside. And I was worried that a wind-gust could get underneath and slam it into my windows. I also did it last year before Hurricane Matthew. Einstein helped me turn it over last year. And we discovered several tiles had broken off. He very kindly helped me to repair it. And by helped me, I mean he did all of it, while I had a migraine. FML.
This year, my tree-cutting friend flipped it back over for me. And I decided I would fix it myself. Go me!! After some consultation with non-local friends, I used contact cement to glue the misplaced tiles down. And heavy weights to hold them while they set. I can still see which ones broke, but at least it's mostly intact.
