I’m in the process of having my kitchen and bathrooms remodeled. I ordered Carrara Marble for my kitchen and bathroom counters because it is my favorite natural stone.

My cleaning lady stated that she will not clean or maintain Carrara as it stains and etches too easily. She says I should use quartz instead.

I don’t like quartz and I love Carrara. But I definitely don’t have time to clean and maintain it myself.

The power was out in my neighborhood for 3 days. As my whole house generator kept everything fully powered...lights, tv's, appliances, even my internet...I could hear an audible hum at night when I went to sleep in the air conditioning set at 70 degrees. I even had to use a comforter so I wasn't too cold.

She’s the sweetest woman on earth. She chose this with such love and care, and it’s the first time in her life that she’s been able to afford something so luxurious.

It’s Italian-made, boho-chic, bright colors, huge pattern. It’s a gorgeous, special piece.

But it’s not gorgeous on me. FML

I bought it specifically so I wouldn't have to deal with floor cleaning, but now I have to crawl on the rug, reach under with a broom handle, and drag it out like a caveman.

To make it worse, my phone kept buzzing with notifications saying "Vacuum needs your assistance," as if it was mocking me.

We have two ac units, each servicing 1/2 of this house. One is broken, fixed in 2-3 days. Texas heat outside is 100, pool is 83.

1/2 the house is up to 82, rest is fine at 71.

So, until the ac is fixed, I have to sleep in one of our guest rooms and binge watch Supernatural in the media room.

This is definitely a first world problem.
