Ive been putting it off, but I need a locksmith to come in and fix the lock on my screen door.
Let me do some research on the type of door/lock I have before I call anyone so I dont end up sounding like a dummy.

my outside water thing for the hose won't turn on since february. I have been putting off getting that fixed as well. I'm hoping its not serious tho.

how do ya'll get rid of mosquito??
Some stuff I use is DR. t's mosquito repelling granules. You use a spreader to put it on your lawn after a fresh cut. Best time to use it is in the morning when the grass is a llittle damp from the morning dew. The neighbors behind me have a pool that is full that they dont use so the sitting water is like a breading ground for them. It works pretty well. I throw plenty of bbqs and back yard parties and dont have many mosquito issues. I use it maybe every 2 weeks, and the morning of a party or something i usually re apply it to the grass, its begins working within the hour. I got it from Home depot

if you have the time do it yourself...its much more satisfying. Everyone around me has lawn care services only me and 1 guy down the street does it himself. My first summer I had a service and it seemed like every other week they was saying I need to get this weed killer and that weed killer which cost more money(the company i bought the house from didnt keep the lawn together so it was dandelions and weeds all over the place.) They eventually just ended up burning my grass from putting so many weed killers on my lawn. Now I have one of the best looking lawns on the block. And keep in mind depending on the size of your lawn it can cost on the low end(at least here) give or take $100 a month. when you ffirst buy a house getting furniture,window ttreatments, appliances, etc that extra 100 u saving can go to getting the crib right

I have a CAC that cuts my grass twice a month for $50. I also have annuals that bloom on their own so the yard looks nice.
