In the absence of good Home Economics and Home Management training, we are going to try this.

Oh lordy... today was the worst of all the Maintenance Chores... cleaning the dishwasher filters.
This is NOT a chore you want to fall behind on, take it from me!

Whooo! With the end of summer in Prairie Metropolis, it's a good reminder to get out there and put a drop of 3-1 oil or equivalent into your window cranks! #Maintenance #Window #Fall

“Just call an appliance repair man”

In this economy? Absolutely not. I’m going in with affordable parts I ordered online, a YouTube video, and a prayer.

I fixed my dryer and it works like a champ.

Feels nice to own an older appliance that you can actually repair!

Also, feels really, REALLY nice that I did it myself.

We have two Furnaces here at our house in Prairie Metropolis, and they have different filter change schedules! If you're running a standard 1" furnace filter, you gotta change that every month!
Bye old gross filter and hello new clean filter!

Did you know.... that every six months you should check all the valves on your water manifold, and even your main water valve? Of all the things you might need to use unexpectedly, those are right up there!
Just give 'em a quick turn back and forth and make sure they move!

Oof... the main kitchen fridge was definitely overdue for a vacuuming, and one of my levelling feet has fallen off... this is going to be fun! #FUN

Good morning, Maintenance Cult Adherents and Acolytes!

Today is a quieter day here in Prairie Metropolis, so it's time to try and catch up on Home Maintenance.

"Catch up", you say, "Aren't you some inerrant and perfect Maintenance Cult?!"

Listen, we're all busy, go easy on yourself...
