I get stupid excited over house related problems and projects, especially when they require equipment I don't currently own.

Cleaned out the gutters. Wait for storm. Thunderstorm arrives.

Observe that the rain water flow indicates a new clog has formed somewhere, and it needs urgent attention.

Now i want to hit the PAUSE button on the storm so i can go out there to resolve the new clog, then hit PLAY to watch the storm again to see if I finally fixed the issue.

But alas, I must hurry up and helplessly wait.

Replacing a doorknob and deadbolt today and I’m so incompetent that the HVAC guy working on our AC has to teach me the phrase “strike plate”

I got up early, tidied the house, made the bed because I thought a guy was coming over to fix a chip he put in my wall.
I wasn't sure when he was coming over because I was asleep when he called to schedule.
It occurred to me about five minutes ago that I might have dreamt the whole thing.

We have this array of light switches in our room but it’s very easy to flip the leftmost switch which disables power to the outlet on my side of the bed, which charges my phone overnight. So I got these little flip up covers so that can never happen again!

What kind of day am I having...? Well, the glass door on our 2.5 year old dryer is cracked (no clue what caused that, since we don't slam it) and replacement door appears to be out-of-stock. Also, it is no longer under warranty and is going to cost us $350 for the new door.
