I have a list of all the things that either don’t work, sporadically work, work but leak, or should send up flashy warning signs like DANGER! DON’T USE ME! There is an even longer list that starts out with the heading “This house is different so you cannot do this…” Or another list of things that I plain don’t understand that is slowly clearing as we dig deeper into the construction process that led to this place. Another list is the scariest of all – the price list of everything we think we need to do and the time it will take to do it.

They are long. I’m not going to post them here. If I do it will immortalize them and someday I hope to put this all behind me and truly enjoy this place.

Oh yeah… there’s the garden. So much dirt. Aargh!
