My saving grace last weekend was finding a local hardware store. I was in the DIY zone mentally so decided to take advantage of my mental instability and tackle some long overdue jobs that needed taking care of at home. It soon became apparent why I don’t work as a skilled tradesman. […]
Just got a flyer in the door regarding 5th wheel insurance. I have a sign up on my door specifying no flyers etc but I was actually glad that the delivery guy either didn’t see the sign or didn’t understand it or even chose to ignore it. I needed to get an […]
