Two dogs and a very weird cat
Kid 2’s house cracked from the heat. This is a thing in Texas. We are supposed to water our foundations except we also have water restrictions, so her entire neighborhood is dealing with it. Luckily it’s an interior wall. We probably won’t need foundation repair but we are having a company come out and assess
