My husband and I have lived in the same house for over twenty-five years, and I love my home.
The longer that I live here though the more I find wrong with it. Whoever built our home did some strange things. I do not know if it was to save money, time, or effort but it tends to be quite annoying. We discovered that many of our outlets were not put in the right way which is not a huge deal, but it took my husband many hours to go through and change them all. I also found that the floor in the dining room is not level whatsoever. If I put any kind of spherical decoration on the table, it rolls off. By far, the most bothering thing that we have dealt with through the years is that the upstairs bathroom does not have any heat running to it. It is always freezing in that bathroom, and it is the bathroom closet to our bedroom. Neither of us want to walk downstairs to go to the restroom in the middle of the night, but having to sit on a freezing cold toilet in the middle of the night is not much fun either. During the winter months, the upstairs bathroom gets as cold as the outside if we do not put any type of heater in the bathroom. We have a small space heater that we put in there, but it is still not very warm; although it keeps the bathroom above freezing. My husband is trying to find a way to run the heat from the furnace into the bathroom. Who knows why the builders did not run heat into the bathroom, but I sure hope we can figure out a way to get some heat there soon.
