Dewalt Reciprocating Saw Blade Kit

Yesterday, I had to run out to Home Depot to get some stuff for a little project I was working on (I’ll tell you about it in the next post). While making my list, I remembered that I needed some saw blades for my reciprocating saw. Remember me telling you about that in the “Replacing […]

Installing A Water Spigot In The Garage

Valentine’s day was here. I wanted to wash the car and have it nice and clean, so my lady and I could drive down to Foxwoods in style. It was pretty dirty and needed a good wash. On my way back from tennis yesterday morning, I dreaded the idea of going downstairs, turning the water […]

I Painted The Red Room

That’s two down and a bunch more to go. I really don’t like painting. It’s not that bad once I get into it, but getting into it is the problem. I have found that doing short bursts throughout the day helps. If I put it off for a few days, I am in trouble. I […]

Losing Heat Through Bathroom Exhaust Fan

If there is one thing that I have noticed during this winter, it’s that the bathroom is really cold in the morning. I keep the door closed because I want to concentrate the heat, so that might be the reason. Either way, the whole thing got me thinking. Can bathroom exhaust vents cause your house […]

Now, I have known this person for many years and thought I knew what he was all about. Last night’s conversation revealed that I wasn’t aware […]

RIDGID 4 Gallon Wet/Dry Vac

Okay, so listen to this. I received my Home Depot gift cards yesterday. I got a pretty decent amount’s worth. So basically, they have been burning a hole in my pocket ever since. So what did I do about it? Well, I ran over to Home Depot and picked up that RIGID 4 gallon wet/dry […]

The Return Of The Humidifier

Well, I returned the humidifier today. I knew it wouldn’t last. You know the one I am talking about…it’s over here. So, with this return, I officially give up on humidifiers. No longer will I buy any more plastic/electronic junk. I am fed up with the products people are trying to sell these days. Half […]

Honeywell HWM-450 4 Gallon Humidifier For Dry Winter Air

Do you have any idea how difficult it is to purchase a humidifier? Well, it’s not hard to purchase one, the difficulty lies in going over all the different selections online. Oh, and the reviews…THE REVIEWS. If there were no online reviews, things would be a heck of a lot easier. Trying to decifer between […]
