For some reason, my mental health is directly proportional to my interest in home repair. Anybody else like that? Anyway, while I was pregnant I was a borderline basketcase. Since having Luke, my desire to work on things around the house has been growing steadily. I know my chemicals are pretty much in balance now because I went to Lowe's (my favorite store) this morning and I wanted to buy everything whether I could use it or not. I just want to have a project going all the time. Right now I'm working on replacing all of the old outlets and light switches. Of course, I didn't buy enough of the light switches and I bought too many of the outlets so I'll be making a return trip. But I think anybody who has worked on a project at home has to make a few unplanned trips back to Lowe's. Am I right?! Next I will be touching up the trim paint and replacing all of the rusted hinges with new ones. The hinges I wanted were almost $9 a door. That's crazy. I went with the cheap ones for under $2 a door. They hold the same weight, they just have a different finish. Anything's better than rust and paint smears. After that I plan to repaint the whole bathroom, but that has many more details and a few more trips to Lowe's, not that I mind. I could live there quite happily for some time.
