Aikidomayland is, for want of a better word, crabby about the house repair and more to the point, the cost. He has been living here for over 15 yrs (almost 10 yrs here for me) and had done little to nothing in maintaining the property.
Well, that has come home to roost. The gate, doors, light fixtures, power outlets, screens, dead trees, the pergola (that still needs fixing), the roof (needs to have some tiles replaced and resealed), paint water stained ceiling. Houses don't heal, they wear down. There is nothing really wrong with the house, but it does need upkeep, and that is what I have been doing. Playing catch up on years of neglect. And as much as it costs to get it fixed, it would be a helluva lot pricier than if we ignored the problems.
