Both of us are going to be hosting a large football get together next weekend, then last year, we didn’t get to have our annual get together because of the whole annoying pandemic thing. This year, we are going to double up and have an even better get together than every one of us usually […]

This part of the country is known for hurricanes, not for twisters. Every year the state gets pounded with several massive storm fronts, causing property damage to varying degrees. Last year was my first encounter with a tornado, however, and I have to say it’s a lot more terrifying to witness. I was at home, […]

I thought I could handle everything by myself, I really did. It was the first time I had ever owned my own house, and I was keen on being a jack of all trades. For the first few months I was great about staying on top of all the regular maintenance and up[keep for the […]

It really sucked to not use the movie screen for the hottest part of the summer, but we had no choice but to stay inside with the air conditioning Last winter, thanks in part to going stir crazy from the pandemic, my wife and I assembled a cool outdoor movie theater in our backyard. We […]

I was not happy about the situation at all and now I was forced to go down to the heating and air conditioning company to buy a brand new space heater because the dogs destroyed mine I am not happy with the neighborhood that I live in. And I have pain and it is not […]
