My husband would go to work, and he would arrive home to a different home. Once, in the middle of a tile grouting project, I received a phone call from the school. My daughter was [...]]]></description>

In case you haven&#8217;t heard me whine about this already, (and I haven&#8217;t done so here &#8211; Yet) my fridge died. It was a slow death that was really very sad because we just bought the fridge 7 years ago. [...]]]></description>

Things like put the trim up around the window in the kitchen, put insulation in the crawl space above the mud room and seal some cracks to make our home warmer. Along with things like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve established here before that I live in the middle of nowhere, a real BFE type of place. A place where not only does the waitress know my coffee preference, she also knows my in-laws, grand in-laws, and could most likely name my kids and neighbors. Small town, USA. And there has been downsides to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve lived in this house for 8 years, but since I was a kid I&#8217;ve had a knack for arranging my space in an appealing and artful, yet useful, way. That has carried into my adulthood where I have managed to create a welcoming, yet organized mudroom. A very cute, definitely a bit of country, [...]]]></description>

As in we agreed on the couch we&#8217;d buy if we buy one. Steve has reservations about buying a couch. They are many. Here&#8217;s a few: Our cat likes to [...]]]></description>

We seem to be working slow to slower on our bathroom work. On the upside, I don&#8217;t have any contractors to be ticked off at [...]]]></description>

AND it will be catered. Food and home improvement shopping. Nirvana. I want to get a new six-panel plain white door for the doorway between the garage and the mudroom. [...]]]></description>

For years, her only closet was a little spot under the stairs. But now she has a closet that measures about 6&#8242;x10&#8242; [...]]]></description>
