Year of writing 131. When what can go wrong does.

5/11/12

Here's how it goes.

try to fix toilet - find out that the entire bathroom needs to be remodeled and tiled because of mold damage.

try to get ice from refrigerator - find out that the water lines to every faucet are frozen with sediment and hard water residue, need to replace every faucet and valve in the house.

try to install gas dryer instead of electric - find out that there's a gas leak outside the house that's been at dangerous levels for probably the last three to five years.

try to figure out when sprinklers come on - find out that the system has leaks throughout, need to break out concrete sidewalk and replace valves.

It's not like I wasn't a homeowner before, I just wasn't a homeowner of a place that needed maintenance.  I have a problem with maintenance.  We ain't cool.
