About LotsaProjects:

Retired "Snow Bird". (I run away from winters from January - April.) Like many retirees, I thought I "planned for my Golden Years" but our DC "representatives" have left me down. (Meaning I've taken a big "hit" on my IRA/Retirement Savings.) Costs WILL be an issue/deciding factor for the projects I list within and their priorities. Yep - "LotsaProjects" to complete & ready my home for sale (when current housing market recovers)! "Looking at the bright side" though..., I guess that gives me time to get the house in shape for resale.

Asked: Whole-Basement Dehumidifier

My basement walls are not "typical" Concrete Block. They're a type of "tile" (light beige & "smooth"). Apparently this type of material was never to be painted. A prior owner had painted most of the ...

Asked: "Split" A/C Unit Selection & Installation
