		<title>Rain Barrel install</title>
		<description><![CDATA[




I finally bought a Rain Barrel to catch rain water.  This is a kind of a cool one that has a tap at the bottom so I can use the rain water to water my potted plants and perennials out front.  I bought it for $50, including the barrel(made from recycled plastic!), and then had [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Found The Poison Ivy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;ve had a few minor run ins with poison ivy this summer and one major one.  I just didn&#8217;t know where I was getting it from.  I&#8217;d killed all the vines I&#8217;d found in the yard last year.  I made a round this summer and did find a few new sprouts and killed them [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Results of Electrical Work</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chris from Teague Electric did a really nice install.  He thought it would take 4 hours, maybe a bit more and that was about what it took them.  $550 more and I&#8217;m in a much better place.  The AC guy stopped by today and is going to get me a bid by Thursday.
Here are the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bringing Electrical Up To Code in Prep for Furnace Install</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;ve saved up enough money to have my furnace and central air re-installed.  I say re-installed because thieves stole the old unit from the house while it was in foreclosure before I purchased it.
It&#8217;s great news to have the money saved up and it&#8217;s even better news that there is a $1500 tax credit [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Van Lives! alternative title, How I Defeated Corrosion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So the new battery accepted the charge but it took 9 hours at 2amps trickling in.  You have to unplug the type of charger I use in order to stop the charging.  It&#8217;s a $30 cheapy from Wal-Mart and it doesn&#8217;t really have an off switch.  It has the intelligence to stop charging once it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Plant The Right Tree in The Right Place or How I Goofed Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I do some work with Heartland Tree Alliance and as a part of that we&#8217;ve all been taught to not plant trees in silly places.  What did I do?  I goofed up and planted a Redbud tree in my front yard.  It&#8217;s a short ornamental tree that&#8217;s well suited to Kansas City.  Unfortunately I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spring Cleaning and Other News</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, I&#8217;ve been busting my butt lately.  I had been sitting around waiting for my foundation guy to call me back, but got tired of that and went out and bought a shed and started my Spring work.  True to form, my foundation guy called me back and he&#8217;ll be working on the house this [...]]]></description>

		<title>February and It&#8217;s Time to Prioritize!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, it&#8217;s been a long time since I updated, but I&#8217;ve been busy.  I did install the wood burning stove and it&#8217;s kept me warm all winter long.  And I&#8217;ve rebuilt my savings that I used up to buy this house.  I feel so much better now that I have an emergency fund to fall [...]]]></description>

		<title>No More Posts In The Yard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, to be accurate, all of the posts that annoy me have been dug up and disposed of.  There are a few posts around the shed foundation that I&#8217;ll leave and tie into when I pour the new slab.
And I&#8217;ve purchased a temporary hearth for the stove.  I was going to look into laying a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fence Is Done</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The fence is up.  Houdini Four Paws tried to poke his way through one section but after I blocked it up he&#8217;s calmed down.  Hopefully he&#8217;ll still be out front in the morning.
