Dogsitting is Hard Work

Maybe we should think about hiring a landscaper too.  I wonder if we know anyone who does landscaping...

We get the keys to the house tomorrow!  We've already purchased a washer, dryer, and lawnmower... though it looks like Bank of America mowed the yard one last time today.  I also have 9 door knobs/deadbolts ready to go, including an electronic keypad.  Woooooo!  We'll be all high tech so we don't lock Elspeth out of the house.

  1. Where do you do your home improvement shopping out there?

  2. We got a Home Depot out here. No Lowes though. We also got a bunch of Ace Hardware stores. I also just recently checked out a local hardware store/lumberyard. Oh, and Sears.

    The appliances and the mower were purchased from Sears since they had a sale. The majority of the stuff we will need will come from HD and the local lumberyard.

    We'll be buying paint from a local specialty store too. Pratt and Lambert. We'll try to avoid the Behr and Glidden.

    If your Kwikset locks have a tiny slit right next to the keyhole, you probably have the Smartkey. I've read that Kwikset has been giving out replacement lock cylinders to those whose locks "reset" themselves.

    Wendy didn't punch me in the arm. We normally spend most of our time at home without any clothes on. Elspeth will just have to learn to deal with it.
