Our homeowner woes continue. I’m preparing our bathroom for new paint and vinyl floor tiles. As I pulled out the old vinyl tiling, what should appear? CRACKS! IN THE CEMENT FLOOR! FUCK YOU!
Sometimes I hate this house so much!
Luckily, I’ve been doing some research and repairing the cracks isn’t going to take too long and it’s something I can do myself. I’m going to practice positive thinking and look at this as a learning opportunity and not the total bullshit fucking fuckery …

It’s clear to me now, after only 20 minutes of actual work, that I’ve bitten off more than I can chew in some respects.  We’re renovating our bedroom/master bathroom.
You see, those cocksuckers who sold this place to us two years ago decided to do a lot of construction themselves when they updated.  This would have been fine if they knew anything about construction and codes and laws and, you know, electricity and plumbing.  We have pretty much fixed the electrical nightmare they created in our walls, with a few exceptions …
