It's About Time

This little baby has been incubating in my brain for six months at the very least. That was right around the time we moved into our beautiful 60 year old home, our first, and realized that it was 60 years old. Don't get me wrong, I love it. And it's pretty cool to own a house (because it's MINE, damnit). But then the kitchen cabinets start falling off the hinges, one by one. And then the oil tank (which was 60 too, mind you) springs a leak in the basement. And you reach for the phone to call your landlord.... and it hits you. I AM the landlord. SHIT. But out of necessity comes some pretty cool learning experiences.

So this blog is dedicated to my beautiful home, and all of the learning experiences it has blessed me with in the 7 short months I've lived in it... and the thousands that will follow. I hope that some poor sap will find it, while cruising the internet for the answer to "How do I run that dryer ducting through my 60 feet of crawlspace?" or even just "How do I get in the crawlspace?" and take comfort in the answers I've found.

At the very least, I'll enjoy the idea that my mini-homeowning triumphs are being documented in some small way.
