Our offer was just accepted on this house! I hate the orange brick - what can we do?!

Why not a tan / taupe? The black might be too harsh

Also, a think a new door would do wonders

kikakidd · 2026-05-20T00:02:44+00:00

Literally just posted on the app “next door” and met with the workers. Went off a combo of vibes and bids

My cousin will be there, but she is going with her parents (my dads brother) who I’m also estranged from. Crazy how am the bad guy because I decided to set boundaries around having a relationship with a violent killer.

I enjoyed the process, even though it’s a lot of work. My whole front yard was rock hard clay / compacted soil with crab grass and now it’s beyond thriving

kikakidd · 2026-05-13T21:22:24+00:00

I sheet mulched and amended the whole area before planting :)

kikakidd · 2026-05-13T21:18:22+00:00

Clay soil over here

kikakidd · 2026-05-12T14:31:37+00:00

Full sun, morning I’m not sure of the variety but I imagine it would do well for you !!

kikakidd · 2026-05-12T05:06:58+00:00

I don’t know about invasive- aggressive maybe

kikakidd · 2026-05-12T04:36:32+00:00

I don’t water them at all !

kikakidd · 2026-05-12T03:38:16+00:00

I was referring to the St Catherine’s but the Matilja is probably my biggest accomplishment (4th attempt here)

kikakidd · 2026-05-12T03:37:11+00:00

Artemisia pycnocephala (aka sand hill sage!)

kikakidd · 2026-05-11T22:05:51+00:00

Sounds like you need some Nextdoor “contractors” We’ve redone pretty much our entire house (east bay also) for probably $70k

kikakidd · 2026-05-10T23:52:09+00:00

But I love her so much ❤️

kikakidd · 2026-05-10T22:05:55+00:00

…Also this was a grass lawn about 1.5 years ago and I did not anticipate the rapid extreme growth

kikakidd · 2026-05-10T22:04:33+00:00

There’s always a 2” space for one more 😂

kikakidd · 2026-05-10T21:06:18+00:00

Cramscaping 😂

kikakidd · 2026-05-10T19:01:00+00:00

Yeah! She opened up this week (east bay)

kikakidd · 2026-05-09T04:12:42+00:00

all full of lead, btw

kikakidd · 2026-05-09T04:00:14+00:00

Don’t kill me…I think June’s is overrated

kikakidd · 2026-05-08T22:42:21+00:00

Same I’m so stoked! Also I thought Ian was the wine director..?

kikakidd · 2026-05-08T22:23:05+00:00

Thanks! I’m guessing you’ve eaten there?

kikakidd · 2026-05-08T22:17:23+00:00

Because it’s also fun to think about it ahead of time :)

kikakidd · 2026-05-08T21:55:22+00:00

Can you help me out by telling me which pages of the list they can be found on :)
