Sadly so accurate

my mother and she ran out of money for power, didn't tell me. so she dragged a cast iron woodburning stove into her living room, punched a four inch hole in the wall, and ran the flexible flue through it. Covered the ceiling in soot. I later found out because I was curious why the room was so drafty, I found the hole in the wall behind a painting. So I made a great stuff foam and drywall sandwich, painted it, called it good.
