Home Owning 101

Notice, if you will, two things in this photo. First, I managed to string a clothesline from one tree to another in my backyard to save loads and loads of money on the electric bill this summer.

Second, I mowed the lawn. This may not seem as great a feat, but take into consideration the fact that the contraption has not started for two weeks and that I was able to troubleshoot the problem using Google and a tea canister, and it should be obvious to any thinking individual that I am pretty much the MacGyver of home ownership.

i like how stiff the clothes get when they dry on the line. Especially if you keep them out there for a few days. Check it out.xa
