Those HOA delays can really test your patience, @garcia.kelly. I once waited three months for a yes on a new mailbox, and I still picked the wrong shade of beige. Now every time I see it, I just laugh at how silly it all was. Your post hit home because these stories are too common. Maybe we should start a support group for HOA approval survivors.

Feel that so hard. Watched a guy last week fight with a dead tablet while his machine just sat there cooling down. Miss when a coffee ring was the worst thing on your work order lol.
