What home improvement work did you do today?

What does that tank do, instant hot water?

 

It keeps pressure on the RO filters. Or something. And the dishwasher and a tap run off it.

 

Ah, Ok Thanks.

 

You can grow crawfish in a field?

 

Reverse osmosis storage tank for drinking water...

 

they're pretty much already there, you just make the envirnoment a lil better then harvest them. hell, this past year it was crazy with the rains where we had a bunch of crawfish mounds in the yard (more than normal) and people in our sub had kids running around with buckets to gather them up and boil a small pot in the house.

 

I'm intrigued; I wonder if this would be good for our front porch. Not that I "need" to do anything, but if it makes it look better and possibly increases grip, I'm all for it.

 

I have been very happy with the results and looks of this product! I’ve received several compliments from our guest and neighbors. I did notice the first time it was wet after drying it felt slightly slick. There was a slight sign of some residual chemicals on the surface that did not mix with water. After that first initial rain fall it has been great every since. I’ve rinsed it off to remove mud and dirt and no issues.

If you live an area that gets snow. I would call the manufacturer and make sure you can use a shovel on it in the winter and not damage the finish or look.

 

well I'll be dipped in shit.

I have only ever caught mud bugs in lakes and rivers using a trap and some discarded fish parts for bait.

 

this was found on my back porch this year during that time. Fairly big one TBH.

 

Yeah, that's some freaky shit (meaning the mud bugs, not the stuff you want to be dipped in).

 

We had an unseasonably warm day yesterday so I took the afternoon off to finally hitch up the snowblower and put some decorations out.

 

Mr. Penguin must have caught a little glimpse of Mrs. Penguin…

 

Finally started on Christmas decorations.

Countertops are next.

 

I’m counting this. The wife an I are sitting by the new fire pit talking and drinking wine.

We are in our second month of marriage and 2.5 months of join home ownership. Wild ride with shitty neighbors and nothing but good times with the wife. Fence up today to put up a buffer with us and the neighbors but it looks damn good



edit the fence in the photo is going to go we put a 6 foot privacy fence

 

Put some Christmas lights on the shed the HOA can't find the time to make an approval on. At the last HOA they agreed upon a gable roof, but I don't have anything in writing yet, so....Christmas lights it is.

 

Somebody judging you.

 

She’s a tough critic

 

Pick up another 700 SqFt of flooring and cleaned out enough crap in the garage so I could move to the right and get wifes extra cars(cause there cute) in the garage.

 

I heard that!

 

Christmas decorations up

 

Ahhh, such fond memories of that movie!

 

Wife had no clue about movie when I found this on Market place and figured out right away that $100 bucks was gone as soon as I could get out the door.

I got the leaves out of the gutters and off the roof today. Lawn guy is coming tomorrow so he'll clean them up. Raking is one of the things I hate most in life. When I'm in Hell, I'm pretty sure I'll have to rake leaves (and be forced to listen to "Dan & Shay.")

Also installed a weather station thing from Costco. Took about 2 hours of troubleshooting for the stupid thing to do right. Maybe I'll be forced to rake leaves whilst listening to Dan & Shay and troubleshooting La Crosse Weather stations.

Your roof is rusted. Time for a new one, and this time keep it properly detailed and waxed.

 

I know, I've been hoping a big wind will come by and take it so I can get a replacement. Seriously though, I hate the rust look but my roofer swears I don't need to replace it because of the slope. I guess there's a coating we can get but it would probably cost as much as a new roof.

Now I'm holding out hope that my Stepdaughter will meet and marry a generous roofer.
