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.

One day, during a big storm, the water started to *seeped out* from the ceiling.
One day, during a big storm, the water started to seep 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*.
At first I just *got on with* my game because the water was just 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.
But after a while, I realized that some of my books were getting damp.
Even though therey were *woren out* for reading themrom being read over and over, they were ones of my favourites.
Even though they were *worn out* from 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.
