Inspection underway. We'll have it approved any minute now!

Today is new front door day

Vycor Plus layeres around the bottom. The outer trim board was a bit punky, but the underlayment still has good intergerity.

Rerouting complete



Ballards / Great Lakes re-plumbed the Domestic Hot Water (DHW) connections from the Water Furnace so I don't need to find a replacement for this goofy X thing (for recirculating) that was used in our 17-year old installation.

Now off to ACE for more parts!

Existing GE waterheater started leaking last night, triggering the water alarm at 6:30am.

Our baby just got her level 2 license, so she can drive without a parent!

'I gots an idea!'


We got a cat AND we got paint AND we got an (upside down) 'light-bulb' over her head... she's sitting in the middle of the newspaper workspace, so let's get started!

Furnace man was here today


Ballard's / Great Lakes swapped the failed Solenoid out. Should cut down on the water usage, now that it can shut off! Better thing is, all covered under their Warranty!

Daddy...


"Do you have something that can fix my 'new' truck cover?"
So I found some thread and jean material to path a tear. Don't know how well that will hold up though!

What's wrong with this picture?

Just a picture of MY appliance problem...

Shame on me!

This must be the original filter for my furnace! I thought I replaced it last year, but I guess not.
Maybe my heat bill will improve now that my furnace can breath!
