Caption reads: "You can’t do a thing about it but I can’t be bothered going house hunting. I’ll just live each day as best I can. I keep thinking it could change again. The dust here doesn’t bother me, the noise doesn’t bother me. When they start pulling down houses the vibrations don’t bother me. Nothing bothers me. We’re all like that. That’s how you have to be when you can’t do a thing about it."
