Rachel and I moved into our current place about a year and a half ago; Previously I hadn’t managed to keep a place for more than a year. So for the first time in a decade, I've been living in the same place long enough that I actually have to fix things I've installed – and dust!
I've never really had to worry about that before. Whatever arrangements Rachel and I had, it lasted at least the six months between when I did it and when I moved.
I put up some lattices by the basketball hoop to keep the basketball out of the street. I put up some Christmas lights on a light detector to light our side path at night (it’s completely dark otherwise, and we never use the front door). Of course, the majority of the work we’ve done has held up and works fine… but I can’t help but be surprised and amused that I’m a bit excited at the notion that I have to clean up after myseslf.Labels: basketball, house, work |
