HaHA! (triumphant sounding)

All I can say is I’m glad I a) bought a hacksaw the other week and b) had the foresight to buy plumber’s tape a while back.

Eight dollars of pipe connections later and it’s hooray for cleaning of clothes.

Le background

I bought a 110-year-old house with some nice architectural accents, many needed cosmetic upgrades, updated plumbing, partly updated electrical, and dreams of fixing things up whilst whistling jauntily on the bright days of summer.

Needless to say I underestimated everything.

This blog is a chronicle (of sorts - I'm notoriously bad at keeping up with things like this over long stretches) of the relationship between me, my house, my tools, and the wealth of knowledge on houses that can be obtained from friends, relatives, and the local library. Projects and problems, and problems with projects, will be described. Options will be discussed. Progress may even be made.

As of this moment, the house is still standing.
