Owning a home sucks sometimes. It takes forever to get something finished, if you do the work yourself.

Not to mention the cost to get things done..it's always 1000.00 or more....never hundreds...always thousands. Our fence will cost approx. 8,000.00 and the central air will be about that too...damn it sucks! I wanted to get my kit floor, countertop and new appliances there goes another thousands of dollars...I hate it.

We've been living here for 4 years. The first year we installed a new furnace & central air... that cost us $5000. The next year we did vinyl siding and some landscaping. The next year the garage went up... this year was the interior...

We have been here 3 years. We have all new appliances, TV's and furniture now. We are working on the landscaping on our own, with my parents help. My mother is a master gardener, literally, she has a certification, and is a great help. We are going to start putting on new doors and some of that stuff soon. We have a lot we want to do, it's just an issue of money, we don't want to finance it unless we absolutely have to.
