DIY Disaster

Let's just say that owning a house and keeping it up comes with some challenges. Eric and I after watching a couple home improvement shows felt up to the challenge of changing out the rotting trim on the bay windows. Saturday morning came and we went after the trim with a vengence.

Destruction is only fun when you don't need to fix it. Replacing what you broke is the challenge. So, after the destruction Eric and I measured twice to cut once new pieces of wood. We headed off to Home Depot with visions of granduer only to be later dashed to the gutter along with the rotting wood.

The sign of a true man is to realize your limits and admit it. To quote Don Henley and The Eagles..."We have taken it To The Limit!" Our next challenge will to make sure we do not get any paper cuts as we flip thru the yellow pages for a qualififed contractor to "rectify the situation!" (Emphasis on the wreck!)
