FYI home improvement stores might be running labor day sales.

Lowe's currently has up to 35% off on appliances and Home Depot up to 40% off. Not much but any little bit counts.

Ive been thinking about replacing the ceiling fan in my kitchen and I might just pull the trigger this weekend.

Saved the best (the worst) for last. Probably wasnt the best idea to start working on it during the afternoon of one of the hottest days of the year. I'm beat

Anyone use a riding lawn mower?

Push is taking too long. Only about .25 acre but looking to save time.

Looking at getting a small riding mower in maybe a couple of years.

Pulled back a bunch more stucco because the rot kept extending further and further, so me and my wife decided to go with a contractor to do the work. Her father works as a manager at an apartment complex and brought over a pair of very knowledgable older black dudes that he's been working with for a number of years now. They agreed to letting me do the demolition and disposal aspect, along with handling supply runs in order to save us some money. I think her dad is also going to work on getting us a better price by offering them additional contracts at his site in return for hooking us up. Super grateful for everyone coming together for us to get this done before the rainy season starts. Additionally excited about finally getting around to getting a proper paint job on this house after living with such a bad one all these years lol.

What’s the recommended down payment size for a house in fl area/ East coast that’s not the dmv or ny??

Tried cutting my grass a new way and I’m just mad I didn’t try it before. I normally do vertical lines, perpendicular to the street but there is a ton of clean up. I started parallel to the street, 90 degree left turns and cut in a box instead. The cuttings from the mower ended up mainly in grassy areas, but more evenly dispersed, so cleanup was minimal. No blower necessary!
