Leaks in the house
I used to live in a very old house.
One day, during a big storm, the water started to *seeped out* the ceiling. At the beginning I *got on with* my game because the water was falling over some *odds and ends*. But after a while, I realized that some of my books were getting dump. Even though there were *wore out* for reading them over and over, they were ones of my favourites. As I couldn't afford a plumber I just put a *nappy* on the leak.
I write the text to use and learn new vocabulary (*words*). They are no related words, so the story may sound a bit strange in some cases.

Leaks in the house
I used to live in a very old house.
One day, during a big storm, the water started to *seeped out* from the ceiling.
After "started to", use the infinitive verb ("seep").
The full phrase is "to seep out (from somewhere)"
At the beginning Ifirst I just *got on with* my game because the water was falljust dripping over some *odds and ends*.
I've added the word "just" to make it sound more natural. It means "simply" or "only".
"Dripping" is a more specific word we can use for water.
But after a while, I realized that some of my books were getting duamp.
Even though therey were *woren out* for reading themrom being read over and over, they were ones of my favourites.
Subject = "They" (the books) -> "They were worn out".
"Being read" = 'passive voice'. (The books were worn out from being read *by me*.../The books were worn out *because I read them...*)
As I couldn't afford a plumber I just put a *nappy* on the leak.

No way, a nappy!? Very resourceful.
Nice work trying out those phrases. I've added just a few corrections to help make your sentences feel more natural. Let me know if you have any questions.
