I spend pretty much every other weekend on home improvement. When will it end?

I hired out the dry walling in my bathroom remodel. Best decision I have made this year.

Totally. Drywall seems so simple but is an art form that takes a long time to perfect and is one of those things that you if you fuck it up, you eyes will always go back to the imperfection no matter how small and you will obsess over it. Better to let a pro do it, even if they just do the finishing.

Ok, the browsing mystery has been solved by LV...

That's very misleading, RM!

Anyway... I'm really digging this tiny house revolution. Less expensive, less need for home improvement, less room for clutter, less cleaning, less environmental impact.

More time outdoors.

I want one.

If it was up to me, I would. Then I'd buy a recently-excavated and leveled 1.42 acre plot with a view in the mountains for $70k, build me a tinyhome with a view, and live light.

I'd still be a 40- minute commute to my job, too...

Not true... your resolution was misleading. You said it just meant they were browsing the thread, not the specific page.

I spent a good year messing around with my wife's sink. Tried Drano a bunch of times....cleaned out the trap twice and still the water would slowly start to back up. Then I turned the stopper so it was a little higher and the water drained fine. Idiot.

She wanted to videotape me cleaning out the drain because she knew I would dry heave in the process.
