What did you do with your Z today IV

JARblue

I kind of like the yellow books cause it gives me some practice ripping them in half

Me too! They stick them in the ends of the hand rail, the door handles. Plus our house has a lot of doors and sometimes they stick one on every door.

hahaha, yah, they never come when needed, always show up when unneeded. good to hear your buddy can chop it up and haul it away.

JARblue

All it takes is $$$ But he gave me a good price: $575 to remove 24" diameter hackberry and grind the stump. I know my parents paid that much just to remove a hackberry 2/3 the size of mine and then had to pay an extra $200 to grind the stump. Unexpected expense, but I'm a glass half full kinda guy

that really sucks. this reminds me of this lady trying to sell her cleaning business putting her business cards in both my cars parked outside on every door and like 3 of them per wiper blade. i thought my dumb neighbor did a prank on me, but then i caught her doing the same to another car parked down the street. i walked up to her and told her to

kenchan

damn, that's a chunk of change but at least you got a great deal!

just part of owning a house, huh? damn that's big tree!

JARblue

The joys of home ownership But seriously, I love owning my own house and doing the work on it myself. Although I have some masonite trim that I need to replace with hardie, and I am not looking forward to that repair very much.

yah, wife and ive been slowly re-doing the applicances this year since now the house is 12yrs old. water heater replaced, sump/ejector pump replaced, kitchen sink/faucet replaced, next up washer & drier, stove, and dishwasher by Fall.

next spring, going to hire a painter to do the interior walls. walls go too high and im not good with heights. ..


big chunks of change... but oh well.

JARblue

Its fun, huh I put in a new toilet and replaced the wall hung lavatory with a pedestal lav about 6 months ago. Appliances are definitely on the list. We got a nice stainless steel range and matching microwave/vent hood when we bought the house, but the existing dishwasher was black and we brought our white refrigerator with us, too. They don't exactly match My favorite renovation was wall mounting my Samsung TV and Samsung motorized wall mount over the fireplace and running the wires plus my speaker wires in the wall.
