Home Inspector Nightmares!

Here's an interesting article that I found about "Home Inspector Nightmares". I know that people try to get away with a lot when they are trying to sell their homes but it made me think about all the things that we homeowners do to "temporarily" fix some problems. Goodness knows that there are some "shortcut" repairs that I have in my house that I wouldn't want anybody to see - LOL!

Gone Fishing

I was browsing around like I normally do and came upon this blog! I LOVE TO FISH! and this blog reminded me of that. I haven't gone fishing in a looooong time and this blog is just making me remember how much I miss it!

Of course the name of the blog is Gone Fishing and the link is:

TV Guide

I have this oh-so-terrible pet peeve about the most latest and "newest" TV Guide! Remember back when it was shaped like this little fat book and it had the TV listings? But more importantly it had a description of the shows and what the episode was about. I hate the newest version. It looks like a big glossy magazine and they have forgone much of the tv listing descriptions in favor of glitzy articles on the celebrities.

Maybe I just need to get more of a life but in the past I had looked forward to get my latest TV Guide and settling in and circling which programs I was going to either watch or videotape. Since my hours aren't normal "9 to 5" hours I pretty much wanted to know my TV options well in advance.

You can't do that with this latest version of TV Guide!

I give it a big thumbs down!

Taking Out The Trash!

I'm always in this mini dilemma about when to take out the trash. If I put it out the night before then I'll put it in one of the recycling buckets so the cats can't get at it (we have a LOT of cats in my area) and then I won't have to worry about getting up earlier in the morning to put it out.



On the other hand there are those times when I just don't want to be bothered with it and I vow that I will get up earlier the next morning so that I can put it out - which sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. There have been a few times when I have awoken to the sounds of the trash truck going down the street and in that instance I remember that I didn't put out the trash and then I sign and vow to have it out the next week. Sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't.
