Me too especially together. Owning your own home is good but there is always something to fix.

I managed to grab a couple of hours of this unseasonably warm weather today to go do a little hunting at a private permission that has been "hunted out" forever. It gave up a gold (plated) ring, a silver (maybe) ring, and a coin that shouldn't have been there, but there it was. Details here.

What year is the 2 ORE?
Well done on the hunt.
It wasn't warm here as it felt like -0F most of the day.

And even if you do ever end.... its time to start over at beginning again. :/

I will be busy my whole next day off. The deck is only 2 years old and even though I stained and painted the railings the top section has rotted. Have to remove it, replace with new wood and paint it again. The wood now days is terrible

Try owning a home and working on the road for extended periods. What little precious time I do get at home is burnt on all of the joys of being a homeowner.

You need to treat it with a better quality wood preservative. There's a few great natural products that are true and tested.
The wood works out being the cheap part.
It's the darn R&R, + time.

We lived in a condo the years we worked.
Still we gutted it, and redid it.
Retired and 3 yrs later started on another home.
Finished it in a few years.
Then we up and bought this place.
It's still going on now for 8 years.
It would of been faster to demo it, and started from new.
Living in it while doing renovations is for the birds.
Had the bedroom in 8 different rooms!
I should of just put the pillow in the bathtub would have been easier.🤣

I’m thinking on getting fake wood. I did the floor decking out of it and it works great

We bought our house 27 years ago. Non stop projects and repairs. I actually enjoy most aspects of working on my home except painting. The wife does that.

My fossil buddy buys them by the crate to sell small teeth, bones, etc in on his online store.
