Probably Not a Good Thing
The freezer is making a strange noise. It’s kind of hard to describe. Not quite a ticking, but sort of. Maybe also like the motor is trying too hard, or something is pushing back and forth. Either way, it does not … Continue reading

Finally!
The most amazing thing happened over the weekend. For the first time ever (in my experience) a project actually took the amount of time we thought it would! This house only had two cable outlets in it when we moved … Continue reading
