I think it’s because I made the mistake of saying I was using the county program. They know the loan requirement (5k). And considering they made two immigrants dig out railroad ties and trench it with their bare hands. wtf. I honestly expected a backhoe, at the very least.

I actually made a wall on the other side of the house by myself with those exact bricks. That’s why I chose them. They have a back edge to them so they just slide into place. But the whole “they don’t make caps for that” is making me homicidal.
