      31/ I'm really really pissed. Pissed at myself, because if I had repaired the small tear yesterday, it might not have grown. ...but then I realize that the small tear did NOT grow. These are new tears. The C channel somehow broke free of the horizontal black plastic frame.

      32/ How did it break free? Normally I secure things really well. I investigate, and see that decking screws were used to secure the C channel. That's odd, I think. That's not the kind of thing I normally do. (I'm forgetting an important clue here)

      33/ ...so I go over the entire side, drill holes through the C-channel, use bolts and washers to secure it, then only after that's done, do I start taping up all of the holes in the film. Dozens of strips 90°to the rips to stitch them together, then more pieces along the rip.

      34/ In the end, I do a pretty good job. Unless you were looking for the problem, you'd just see a greenhouse, maybe not even notice the patch job. Here's the after:pic.twitter.com/a6puiD51Mu

      35/ ...but I'm still beating myself up. Why the F would I have used decking screws? That's the kind of idiot move the farmhand does, but I was one who build the greenhouse (I'm still forgetting something). I'm so God-damned angry at myself. Tighten bolts before wrapping up.

      36/ ...and then I see something. Here's the inside of the greenhouse. You can see the ends of the bolts that I just installed to replace the deckscrews. ...but there's a little clue. Can you see it?pic.twitter.com/SEsVpxUyHp

      38/ What's that hole? Interesting. It's the exact right size for the bolts...did I drill this a few minutes ago in the wrong location? No.... O.M.G. Two memories come rushing back.

      39/ One: me building the greenhouse, and USING BOLTS TO ANCHOR THE C CHANNEL (that's what the hole is from: 2014 or so) Two: me asking farmhand to replace some C channel as part of the re-skinning.
